Nasser Maher Acquitted as Court Overturns Six-Month Jail Sentence

The New Cairo Misdemeanor Court has acquitted footballer Nasser Maher of a charge of assaulting a security guard in the Tagamoa area, overturning a six-month prison sentence.

The ruling came after the court accepted Maher’s objection to the earlier judgment. It cancelled the custodial sentence and found him not guilty.

The case concerned an allegation that Maher had assaulted a member of security staff. No further details about the alleged incident or the court’s reasons for acquittal were provided.

The decision removes the six-month sentence imposed in this case. While the outcome raises questions about any further legal proceedings, the available information does not establish whether an appeal or another judicial step will follow.
