When Brisbane man Hazem Hamouda landed in Egypt for a dream holiday with his Australian-born family, he never imagined it would land him in prison.
The devoted father of six was whisked away by Egyptian security minutes after touching down.
More than a year later, Mr Hamouda, 55, still languishes in a Cairo jail, where his mental and physical health are rapidly deteriorating.
Egyptian authorities accuse him of being associated with the banned Muslim Brotherhood and spreading false information - but no charges have been laid.
