2005-07-01 |
![]() The court began its hearing in the case against Nour and six members of his party over alleged forgery charges. The top judge Adel Abdel Salam agreed on postponing the trial after the lawyers of the six defendants said âthe co-defendants were victims of Nourâs lies and deception and he is a long-time forger.â The lawyers added that they have other evidences that prove that the Ghad leader had fabricated pictures of tortured Islamists in the 1990s when he was a reporter for Al Wafd opposition paper. Some of the defendants confessed that they forged the documents at the request of Nour with a computer he had bought for them. |
