    On October 5th, National Security officers arrived at the home of Sherif Wagih Fahmi and his family whose residence is located in Alexandria, Egypt. Claiming to work for a gas company, the officers gained entry into the family's apartment and immediately arrested the unsuspecting 41-year-old Christian husband and father. News sources also report that he has since been charged with speaking against Islam through an online post.
