⁣Hussain Urni Hussain al-Fiki hanged 1,070 prisoners during his career as Egypt‘s sole executioner; ‘There‘s only one president and there‘s only one hangman,‘ says proud al-Fiki.
Hussein Qarrni Hussein al-Fiki, the hangman‘s real name, was born in 1947 in the city of Tanta and served in the Egyptian military until 1967.
He then joined the prison service and worked for 15 years as a prison guard, in charge of accompanying the most dangerous prisoners due to his impressive physical build.
