Egyptian actress Shireen Saif Nasr has filed a lawsuit against the Egyptian newspaper Al Gomhoryia, for insulting her in one of their published articles and making her appear as a heartless woman. Shireen was shocked when she read the article in the newspaper about her being attacked by a stalker.
Shireen stressed that she could not believe the paper stated that she and her business manager had assaulted the stranger, a thing that she assured never would happen under any circumstance.
The story had started when an Egyptian singer named “Yaseen” has forcefully barged in the hotel swimming pool where Shireen was staying an attempt to meet her. Security guards immediately rushed and were able to get hold of the man before reaching the actress.
The man had been stalking Shireen for some time and made several attempts to meet her on the grounds that she knows him very well, but the actress denied ever meeting him before or knowing who he is.
Shireen demanded that a straining order be put on Yasser to ensure that he will not attempt to get close to her, which is the normal thing to do in such instances. Shireen stressed that she means no harm to everyone and just wants to ensure that her personal safety is rightfully protected.
At the police station, Yasser denied that he had stalked Shireen and stressed that he went to the hotel to meet Egyptian actor Sharif Sabri, saying that he had an appointment with him. –Albawaba.com
