An Egyptian citizen set himself on fire in Tahrir Square on Thursday, according to a live video broadcast on his Facebook page, before the broadcast ended with setting his body on fire.

The man, an employee named Muhammad Hosni, said Egyptian authorities persecuted him and destroyed his family after he returned to the state looting money.

The man threatened to burn himself when security soldiers in the plaza approached him and poured a large amount of gasoline on his clothing, highlighting his refusal to be escorted back to “National Security.”

He added that he was fired from his job and prosecuted by National Security for that, and that £ 25 million was returned to the state, which he exposed in corruption cases.

He sang slogans denouncing injustice and corruption, such as the chant known since the time of the overthrown President Mubarak, “Oh our country, hospice”, then shouted “God is enough and yes, the agent” aloud in the square, before igniting fire.
