In a phone call with the evening talk show "al-Hayat al-Yuom," Ibrahim talked about the main defendant of the explosions that took place near al-Hussein Mosque and Cairo's famous Khan el-Khalili market in 2009. He said the defendant is called Khaled Mohamed and is a leader in Beni Suef governorate, adding that he was accused before in another case.
