A Cairo court adjourned the first session of lawyer Khaled Ali’s trial to 3 July, Ahram Online reports. Ali is accused of offending public decency after a “photograph in which he appears to make an obscene hand gesture on the steps of a Cairo court house” was published, according to Reuters. Ali was arrested last week and released on EGP 1,000 bail.
