CAIRO — An Egyptian court sentenced a man to three years in jail with hard labour on Saturday for insulting Islam in postings on Facebook, the official MENA news agency reported.

The Cairo court found that Ayman Yusef Mansur "intentionally insulted the dignity of the Islamic religion and attacked it with insults and ridicule on Facebook," the agency reported.

It did not provide details on what he had written that was deemed to be offensive.

Time to start refilling all of those jail cells that were emptied when Mubarak was thrown out.

In that case, it could be safer in jail than on the streets, because the jails will be filled with Copts.

He probably complained that the print in his edition was too small.
