The news of his death spread,[9] and at about six o'clock in the evening, the security forces came to the Health Insurance Hospital. They arrested him from inside the hospital again, and it was confirmed that he was being held at the State Security headquarters in Nasr City, despite his injury.[10]

The Egyptian Public Prosecution office declared that he was alive and ordered his detention for 15 days.[10] He was sent to Scorpion Prison.
