Former IAEA chief and Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Dr. Mohamed ElBaradei, was denied access to the Journalists Syndicate, where he had intended to visit journalists from the Independent Al- Dostour newspaper in solidarity with their ongoing sit-in.
According to sources, the democracy advocate and opposition leader was banned entry following orders issued by security personnel. Syndicate head, Makram Mohamed Ahmed, asserted that he refused ElBaradei's visit on the grounds that he had not obtained prior permission. Commenting on the incident Makram emphasized that he will not permit ElBaradei to enter the Syndicate, asserting that if he attended it will be very problematic.
Makram added that if ElBaradei wanted to show solidarity with the journalists, he could do so from outside the Syndicate.
