Egyptian police arrested a man after receiving a report from actress Wafa Amer’s mother accusing the guy of molesting her daughter on her way in and out of the house. Wafa’s mother claimed that the man has been stalking her daughter for some time now to the point of scaring her.
Police arrested 30-year-old Mohammed Tarek Najeeb, a sales representative, and lives in the apartment opposite to Wafa’s. Mohammad admitted that he likes Wafa a lot and he only wanted to express his interest by getting to know her better. The man was released after signing a restraining order prohibiting him from talking or getting close to the actress.
Wafa is currently working on her latest TV drama entitled “Noojoom el Dohr” costarring with her Yusef Shabaan and Summaya Al Ulfi. The drama is written by Ahmed Haikal and directed by Mahmoud Bakri. Waffa performs the role of a sales manager who secretly marries her boss.
Wafa became very famous and the talk of the town after being slapped on the face by her colleague Hisham Abdul Hamid in front of a live audience while performing a play. The incident happened when Wafa and Hisham were performing their play “Jawaz ala wraket Talak” (Marriage on a Divorce Paper) and the play was a success but to everyone’s surprise during one of the final scenes Hisham slapped Wafa on the face and things got worse leading Wafa' to file a lawsuit against her colleague.
Wafa revealed that problems started from the first day the play began, and actress Aida Abdul Aziz tried to curb the dispute but things went from bad to worse. Wafa added, "the night we were recording for TV in front of a live audience Hisham deliberately tried to be the center of attention and interfered in the dialogue. He was very violent and pushed me several times in front of the audience the thing that embarrassed me in front of my fans."
Wafa filed charges against the actor for his uncalled for attitude and stressed that Hisham purposely knocked her to the ground by stepping on the tip of her dress and then managed to keep her voice from being heard by people while she was calling for help.
"The play is over despite the great success because of that incident. I wont perform with Hisham anymore even if they paid me a million EGP per minute" wafa stressed. –Albawaba.com
