An Egyptian prosecutor has banned journalists from reporting on a legal complaint filed by a former presidential candidate, Ahmed Shafiq, who claimed that last year's elections were fixed.

According to a judicial source cited by the website Aswat Masriya the prosecutor made the decision after Shafiq's attorney argued that the election results were "manipulated."
