UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy is in Cairo to press local officials to release a jailed British Egyptian pro-democracy campaigner.

Speaking to the AFP, a British government official, on condition of anonymity, said "the UK remains committed to securing the release of Alaa Abdel Fattah and this will be a focus of the Foreign Secretary's meeting in Egypt today."
