Elijah Zarwan writing on Global Voices informs us that the Award-winning Egyptian blogger and activist Alaa Seif al-Islam Abd al-Fattah whose arrest by the Egyptian forces I blogged about over a month ago, has been freed. Ethan informs that there are indications that the 26 remaining Kefaya prisoners may also be released soon. Alaa’s wife, Manal, thinks he will be back home by late Thursday at the latest. Excellent news indeed or as they are saying on some Egyptian blogs, MABROUK YA SHABAB! MABROUK YA TENNIN YA BAMBY! (Congratulations, guys! Congratulations, you pink dragon!)
