The attack of the Egyptian parliament member, Mustafa Bakri, on the businessman, Naguib Sawiris, sparked a “verbal battle” between the parliamentarian on one side and Alaa Mubarak, son of the late Egyptian President Mohamed Hosni Mubarak, on the other hand, during which the two sides exchanged “accusations and sarcasm”.
The beginning came following Bakri criticized Sawiris, accusing him of “inciting sedition,” following the businessman posted a tweet on his Twitter account, commenting on the “Abu Sefein” church fire incident in Imbaba, Giza Governorate, which killed 41 people and injured 12 others, according to statement “The Egyptian Ministry of Health“.
I did not want to write a condolence before knowing the details of the accident, because in Upper Egypt we do not accept condolences until we know the details and know the perpetrator! God is the avenger! And it is he who will bring the right of the victims.. My condolences to all of Egypt, to all Muslims and Christians, because everyone who worships God is sad ????

In his tweet, Sawiris said that he did not want “condolences” before “knowing the details of the accident, because in Upper Egypt we do not accept condolences before we know the details and know the perpetrator. God is the avenger and he will come once morest the victims.”
Following the tweet, Bakri accused Sawiris of “inciting once morest the state and spreading false information,” calling on the Egyptian Public Prosecutor to investigate him following “inciting sedition,” according to the website.Egyptian today“.

In a post on Twitter, Sawiris responded to these accusations, mocking the Egyptian parliamentarian through a “group of photos” in which Mustafa Bakri appears during meetings with the symbols of the Mubarak regime and the symbols of the Brotherhood and the Salafists, followed by the comment “The story of Mustafa Bakri’s struggle.”
Glory be to God, fine, someone else is asking the Attorney General to investigate the publication of false news that remains acceptable ???? This is you telling lies regarding the father, may God have mercy on him, part of which was mentioned by Professor Farid in court and from your book! …I said it to you before, and I did not believe that you are a professor, head of the department, and a model taught in the – not to blame. Regards, Idarsh

In a tweet on Twitter, Alaa Mubarak entered the crisis line, addressing his speech to Bakri, saying: “Glory be to God, someone else is asking the Attorney General to investigate the publication of false news that remains acceptable.”
Alaa Mubarak added, “You told lies regarding the father, may God have mercy on him (Hosni Mubarak), part of which was mentioned by lawyer Farid (Al-Deeb) in court and from your book! Oh dash.”
To Alaa Mubarak
I choose my battles carefully, and I will not forget you that you and your brother Jamal attended my mother’s condolences in 2014 at the Omar Makram Mosque.— Mustafa Bakri (@BakryMP) August 16, 2022
After Mubarak’s son’s attack, Bakri published a tweet in which he said, “To Alaa Mubarak, he chose my battles carefully, and I will not forget for you that you and your brother Jamal attended my mother’s condolences in 2014 at the Omar Makram Mosque, and I excuse you in your defense of Sawiris, and I know the reasons well, and I forgive you, may God guide you.” “.
Professor Mustafa, stay for God, and despite your lies and your lies, the duty is a duty, and this is the difference. This is you, you were not even present to offer the duty of condolences to the father, may God have mercy on him, at the time of the whole country! Even in the duty of condolences, Your Honor, you came out of little origin. Greetings
— Alaa Mubarak (@AlaaMubarak_) August 16, 2022
Alaa Mubarak responded to Bakri’s tweet, saying: “Professor Mustafa, stay for God, despite your lies and your lies, but duty is a duty and that is the difference. Condolences, Your Honor, you are of little origin.
good morning
I ask Mr. Alaa Mubarak, son of the assets, the good, to stand by his country and give a message to others and transfer the amount of 429 million dollars that he and his brother own to the Central Bank of Egypt, instead of leaving it abroad and the country is in need of foreign currency. It is not reasonable to turn our brothers in— Mustafa Bakri (@BakryMP) August 17, 2022
Some Arab countries yearn for Egypt from the heart of one of its sons who benefited from its bounties. What do you think, Mr. Alaa? Then, believe me, no one will tell you how you are out of your spending of 8 billion pounds in a few years. We are a country of law and we know that every diligent has a share. , Half a billion dollars helps return it!

After Mubarak’s son’s attack, the Egyptian parliamentarian published new tweets, during which he accused “Alaa and Gamal Mubarak” of owning money outside Egypt and profiting from their father’s position.
