The well-known Armenian belly dancer Safinaz has been summoned by Egyptian prosecutors. Safinaz summoned for 'insulting' Egyptian flag by wearing a dancing costume fashioned after the Egyptian flag.

The report, filed by angry citizens, said that Safinaz wore the flag-inspired costume to a party in the Red Sea resort of Ain Sokhna last week and accused her of defaming the Egyptian people and state, reported ahram online. Prosecutors summoned both Safinaz and the party organisers on Sunday for questioning over the allegations.

The article also reminded that Egypt's former interim president Adly Mansour issued a law in early June imposing a jail term of up to one year and a fine with a maximum penalty of $4,000 for anyone who insults the flag.  It should be mentioned that Safinaz has been an immediate success since her arrival in Egypt over two years ago, with appearances in several Egyptian movies as well as paid performances at prestigious weddings.
