UAE President Mohamed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan Pardoned Zamalek Trio Involved In Assault Case
In a gesture that embodies the fraternal connection and the deeply rooted ties between the Republic of Egypt and the United Arab Emirates, Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan decided to pardon El Zamalek Trip who had been involved in a physical altercation during the club’s recent game in Abu Dhabi on October 20th.
What happened?
During El Zamalek’s match against Pyramids FC, Zamalek players Mostafa Shalaby, Mohamed Dunga, and their manager Abdelwahed Sayed had gotten into a physical altercation with one of the match’s organizers.
The altercation led the Emirati organizer to file a police report, leading to the trio’s arrest.
The altercation began due to a misunderstanding between the trio and the organizer, as the organizer celebrated after the Pyramids goal, and he was wearing a red shirt, so the Zamalek players thought that he was supporting a rival team. Mustafa Shalaby was also seen assaulting one of the organizers behind the Zamalek club bench, in a scene that angered the fans attending the match.
Al-Masry Al-Youm’s correspondent confirmed that the UAE authorities decided to release the Zamalek trio after the intervention of the Egyptian ambassador to the UAE at the request of Hussein Labib, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Zamalek Club.
Then, The Public Prosecution in the Emirates decided to refer the Zamalek trio to trial last Wednesday, October 23, against the backdrop of the Egyptian Super Cup crisis. The Abu Dhabi Prosecution decided to continue the detention of the Zamalek trio until October 29.

Presidential Pardon by Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan
Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the Emirates, ordered the pardon of those accused in the events of a football match between the Egyptian clubs Zamalek and Pyramids, which was held in Abu Dhabi on October 20.
This pardon reflects the fraternal relations between the UAE and the Arab Republic of Egypt, and Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan’s keenness to strengthen the fraternal ties that unite the two countries.
