Proving Him Wrong

|

An Egyptian court has refused to release Abdel Kareem Nabil on bail. Nabil has been in prison since November because of posts he made on his blog which called President Hosni Mubarak's administration a "symbol of dictatorship" and that criticized conservative Muslims. He faces up to nine years in prison on charges of insulting Islam, insulting the president, harming national unity and inciting sedition.
