-----------------------------------------------------



The prominent Egyptian blogger and activist Hossam el-Hamalawy has been
ordered to appear before Egyptian military prosecutors today for
criticizing the human rights record of the Armed Forces Supreme Council.
A host of a popular TV show has also been summoned for questioning. On
