Harassment against Females after the Coup

Human rights organizations,NGOs,and media in Egypt kept talking about the sexual harassment incident that took place inside Cairo university,as a group of students surrounded a 20 years old girl who is studying in Faculty of law and followed her everywhere in the university.
The organizations and media condemned the incident and a lot of statements were issued .On the other hand we have been watching sexual harassment violations against the girls in the universities who protest against the coup in Egypt and sometimes they are badly beaten by security and thugs,and no one condemn all these actions as if these girls living in another planet .We have watched 7 am movement girls who were sentenced to eleven years imprisonment on the charge of protesting against the coup and they were kept inside the prisons with the criminals who badly treated them.As well,a lot of females who are arrested because of protesting against the coup faced virginity tests,rape and torture and no organization  reacted with them ,even the National Council for Women (NCW).
Everyday there are protests where girls are killed,beaten and tortured not only in the universities ,but also in the streets.
I am wandering about this kind of deal with the situation.The regime trying to hide any attack against the females in the universities or the streets who protest against the coup,on the other hand the regime and its followers consider the protesters as terrorists.Where's the justice that should prevail among all the people everywhere and help them enjoy their security and rights? I think coup regime should answer this question?
