Just from dew seconds I knew very bad news , I have just knew that two bloggers , famous ones Malek - X and Jimmy Hood were arrested while they were going to the protest against the constitution amendments, not that only but also the famous Islamic MB writer Mohamed Abd El-Quds , the member in Kafya and son of the famous novelist Ehasn Abd El-Quds was arrested too
Updates : Mina aka Haj Gargas ,who is another blogger was arrest
of course those people are not arrested for blogging but for public protesting against the constitution amendments
this is so bad , already it seems that Malek was kidnapped not arrested !!
Here are the sources
UPDATE: Malek was set free
Another update : they were all set free

There were 2 articles in the Washington Post yesterday (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/03/18/AR2007031801196.html) - one titled: Democracy's Dusk, Amovement Fades: Egypt Shuts Door on Dissent As U.S. Officials Back Away. There was a second corresponding article, which I can't seem to find now. But they mention Kafiya and spoke to the leader of the movement. More articles are available at: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/world/africa/index.html
