A misdemeanor court punished Egyptian actor Ahmed Alfishawy with a year in prison and $126 bail, and fined him $31 in addition to $1,266 in compensation for his failure to pay child support expenses for his daughter Lina Alfishawy.
Shaaban Saeed, Lina al-Fishawi's lawyer, said that the ruling came after warning Ahmed Alfishawy about his obstruction of execution, evading execution, smuggling his money abroad and refusing to pay amicably.
Previously, a family court had imprisoned Ahmed Alfishawy for one month for his failure to pay the child support expenses for his daughter Lina for a year, which led her mother to file a lawsuit against her her ex-husband.
