Really Naji

                  An Egyptian author has been sentenced for two years in jail for sexual explicit scenes published in a magazine. Ahmed Naji was found guilty  Saturday of violating public modesty for the writings from his novel "Using Life." A guy had complained that that writing caused him heart palpitations, sickness, and drop in blood pressure. Prosecutors took this to court, arguing that Naji’s use of describing vulgar phrases to describe sexual intercourse constituted a disease destroying social values."Citizens can't bring such cases to court without proving a direct and personal link to the action in question," that is exactly what one of Naji’s lawyers said. Do you think he should go to prison?
