Hassan Ibrahim (1917 - 1990) was an Egyptian Air Force officer and one of the founders of the Free Officers movement.
Early life and education
Ibrahim was born in 1917.[1] He was a graduate of the Air Force Academy in Egypt.[2]
Career
In 1952, Ibrahim served as an Air Force group captain.[1] He was one of the three judges, who tried the members of the Brotherhood after their attempted assassination attack against then president Gamal Abdel Nasser in 1954.[3] The other three judges were Anwar Sadat and Abdel Latif Boghdadi.[3] The same year he was among the officers who arrested Mohammed Naguib. Ibrahim was also appointed minister for presidential affairs in 1954.[2] Two years later, in 1956, Ibrahim became the head of the Egyptian economy agency.[2] After dealing with business for a while, in February 1964, he was appointed as one of seven vice presidents of Nasser.[2] Ibrahim resigned from office in 1966 due to Nasser's request to end his relationship with a woman, and continued business activities.[2]
Free Officers Movement
Ibrahim was among five military officers who formed the first cell of the Free Officers movement in July or September 1949.[4][5] Although it is argued that Ibrahim along with other officers was a member of the Muslim Brotherhood's special unit from 1944 to 1945,[4][5] there is another report, stating that Ibrahim was part of the group called Young Egypt.[2] In addition, Ibrahim was one of the nine-member leadership group of the Free Officers movement.[1] The movement led the 1952 Revolution.[6] Then Ibrahim became a member of the 14-member Revolution Command Council (RCC) that was charged with the running of Egypt following the success of the revolution.[1]
Death
Ibrahim died in 1990.[1]
