Twenty Six Year old Maikel Nabil Sanad, was sentenced to three years in an Egyptian prison for his criticism towards the Egyptian Army via his blog. He essentially put the military on blast by saying they were still loyal to Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak. His lawyers weren't there to defend him and he was sentenced. According to the military, its ok to criticize the army, but supposedly Maikel crossed the line by questioning the military "intentions". The Egyptian riot's back in February have cooled of to an extent, but it seems like there is still tension in the country.
