Cairo Court Orders Mohamed Salah to Appear in Legal Dispute

A Cairo civil court has ordered Mohamed Salah to appear in person in September in a dispute with a former lawyer seeking unpaid fees. sportbet.reviews

The 14th Civil Circuit of the New Cairo Court of First Instance scheduled the hearing in case 7826/2025 as an evidentiary step in a civil lawsuit. It is not a criminal summons or a final ruling that Salah owes the claimant money.

The court instructed its clerks to formally notify the Egyptian forward, who was absent when the preliminary ruling was issued, and drafted an oath requiring Salah to deny that lawyer Amr Faragallah Morsi performed the legal and administrative work listed in the lawsuit.

Under Egyptian civil procedure, a “decisive oath” allows one party to ask the other to swear to disputed facts. The person concerned cannot delegate the act to a legal representative.

Taking or declining the oath “can determine the disputed issue,” according to the Lawyers Syndicate. If Salah takes the oath, the claim concerning the alleged work would be resolved in his favour. Failure to appear or refusal to swear without an accepted excuse would legally count as declining the oath and could decide the issue against him.

For the time being, the court postponed its decision on costs and litigation fees until it delivers a final judgment.

The lawsuit was filed by the lawyer on September 11, 2025, seeking payment for legal cases, administrative procedures and consultations he says he handled for Salah in 2012.

He also requested compensation for alleged “material and moral damage caused by the delayed payment.” The claim includes expenses he says he paid while carrying out the work, as well as alleged “damage to his professional standing.”

However, no value for the requested fees or damages has been publicly disclosed.

Faragallah based his claim on a general power of attorney issued by Salah through the Nasr City First Documentation Office on July 20, 2012. According to the court papers, the authorisation allowed Faragallah to handle Salah’s legal affairs.

The lawyer said it remained active until he formally withdrew on August 25, 2025. “I am establishing my right and will not speak for now,” Faragallah said.

Salah and his representatives have not yet publicly responded to the claim.

Johannesburg, South Africa: A triumphant night for North Africa ended on Saturday with hosts Morocco and Algeria reaching the Women's Africa of Nations (WAFCON) semi-finals and the 2027 World Cup in Brazil.

They took contrasting paths to quarter-finals success as Morocco built a two-goal lead, then defended resolutely against South Africa for a 2-1 victory in Rabat.

Algeria fell behind against the Ivory Coast in Casablanca, then took advantage of their opponents having a player sent off to score twice and emerge 2-1 winners.

In the semi-finals on Wednesday, Morocco will face defending champions Nigeria or Cameroon while Algeria tackle Ghana or giant killers Malawi.

No north African nation has won the marquee African women's football tournament, which has been dominated by Nigeria with 10 titles.

The only other countries to became WAFCON champions since its debut in 1998 were Equatorial Guinea twice and South Africa once.

Morocco, runners-up to South Africa four years ago, led after 31 minutes thanks to a second goal of the tournament from Sakina Ouzraoui.

Hanane Ait El Haj increased the lead six minutes into the second half by converting a penalty. South African star Thembi Kgatlana then netted on 67 minutes to set up a tense finish.

In Casablanca, Ines Konan put the Ivorians ahead on 29 minutes, but they were reduced to 10 players before half-time when teenager N'Sira Ouedraogo was sent off.

Algeria struck twice within six minutes just before and after the hour mark through substitute Ines Khiri and Amira Braham to turn the match in their favour.

Between the Algerian goals, Ivory Coast squandered a chance to regain the lead when Rebecca Elloh struck the post from a penalty.

The red-carding of 18-year-old Ouedraogo, for kicking Algeria goalkeeper Chloe N'Gazi in the face, proved pivotal as her team lost the ascendancy they established during the opening half.

After barely threatening to score during the first 45 minutes, Algeria took control after the break and created enough chances to have won more decisively.
