responsible for posting (a mobile phone technician living in Qalyubia) confessed to obtaining a

the incident occurred in Aswan to boost view counts and earn financial profits from the views.
Legal actions have been taken.”

The Ministry confirmed that appropriate legal measures have been instituted against the
perpetrator.
