Posted on By 3arabawy

I’m receiving news that bloggers Muhammad Adel and Mustafa Khalil have been detained by the police, while covering the sit-in today in front of the Shobra Prosecution office, where our friend Abdel Moneim Mahmoud is being interrogated together with a group of MB students.

UPDATE: The two were held in police custody for half an hour before their release. Moneim’s interrogation is still ongoing.
