Egyptian court upholds sacking of professor who shared video of herself belly dancing at the rooftop of her house
By Adeleye Kunle
An Egyptian court has upheld a verdict to expel a professor from a university for sharing videos of herself belly dancing on the rooftop of her house.
Mona Prince, who was an English language lecturer at the state-run Suez University, posted a video in 2017 on her personal Facebook page showing her belly dancing on a terrace in a blue galabeya (long traditional dress).
The video stirred controversy, and some students later complained that the Professor had undermined religious values with the content she posted.
The university sacked her in 2018 following an inquiry over the videos on her Facebook page.
A lower court affirmed the decision by state-run Suez University to fire Mona Prince.
Prince appealed but Egypt’s Supreme Administrative court dismissed the appeal.
The Supreme Administrative Court said Prince had committed violations including “deviating from the scientific description of the academic curricula, and spreading ideas that contradict heavenly beliefs and public order”.
