CAIRO, Feb 15: Egyptian police arrested today a leading government critic and party leader Abdel Moneim Abul Fotouh along with five of his aides, security officials said.
The reason for the arrest of Abul Fotouh, a candidate in the 2012 presidential election, was not immediately clear.
It comes after the arrest of a party deputy leader and a call by Abul Fotouh and several other politicians for a boycott of next month’s election. (AGENCIES)
