Travel ban of preacher Mohamed Gibril lifted

The Court of Administrative Justice lifted the ban on Islamic preacher Mohamed Gibril on Tuesday.
 
Cairo International Airport authorities prevented Gibril from flying to London in July on charges of inciting against the country and the president. He filed a lawsuit in which he said that he usually travels during Ramadan to Islamic capitals and western countries to lead prayers in major mosques and Islamic centers, then comes back to hold the special prayers on the twenty-seventh of the holy month at Amr ibn al-Aas mosque.
 
The Endowments Ministry had also prohibited Gibril from leading prayers in all Egyptian mosques.
