    Authorities raid & close ’atheists’ cafe’ in downtown Cairo
    By: Mada Masr
    Security forces raided and closed what they described as the “atheists’ café” in the Abdeen neighborhood of downtown Cairo, municipal authorities announced Sunday.

    The café has also been described as a den for “Satan worshippers.”

    The closure spurred a reaction on social networking sites, with “atheists’ café” trending nationwide.

    The mainstream media portal Sada al-Balad reported on Sunday that the coffee shop was raided and demolished.

    Gamal Mohie, chief of the Abdeen Municipality, told Mada Masr that the coffee shop in question was not raided on Sunday, but one month earlier, on November 10.

    “There was no demolition involved, only confiscation of the coffee shop’s property. This was all done in accordance with the law and legal procedures,” Mohie clarified, adding that the only person arrested during the raid was the owner, “as his coffee shop was unauthorized, unlicensed, and also because drugs were found inside.”
