On June 22, 2020, Sanaa Seif, her sister Mona Seif and their mother, human rights defender Laila Soueif, were physically assaulted and robbed by unidentified women in front of Tora prison. On June 23, 2020, the three women went with their lawyer to the Public Prosecutor's office to file a complaint about the accident. Sanaa Seif and her lawyer were stopped at the entrance to the building and asked to show their identity cards. Upon presenting their IDs, Sanaa Seif's lawyer was pushed aside, and she was forced into a pickup truck.
