Follow Up : The Forgotten Reporter

If You remember I brought up the Egyptian X-File of the forgotten reporter Mustafa Hamad earlier this month.

I tried to get an indirect answer from Al Jazeera Channel about this matter ,already I know a source there ;)

The answer came to me from two directions.

A senior editor in Al Jazeera officer in Egypt

Al Jazeera does not recognize his existence till now and does not want any relation with him

The General manager of Al Jazeera Wadah Khanfar , who was already among Al Jazeera office in Afghanistan

We do not have in our records any information about a reporter with that name who worked with us, may be he worked for us temporarily but we do not have employees with that name.

These are the answers from Al Jazeera , they deny and say that the man never worked for them and thus they are not responsible for his and his family disappearance or detention in Iran.

Well may be he did not work directly with them and he was a freelancer that had his connection with the Taliban and thus used it.

Already I do not blame Al Jazeera to deny any relation with Hamed but again I put all the reasonability and all the blame on the Foreign state , even if Hamed was arrested in Iran for his relations with Taliban, his family should return back home safely to Egypt .
