CAIRO: Egyptian authorities on Monday detained a famous TV host whose program had been critical of the government’s policies, including its crackdown on freedom of speech, her lawyer said.
Liliane Daoud was taken from her house to an undisclosed location, Zyad El-Elaimy said. Daoud hosted a talk show on ONTV, a private network that has adopted a less critical editorial line since Ahmed Abou Hashima, a pro-government businessman, purchased it last month.
