The ruling has been rescheduled to the fifth of April after the judge opted not to proceed examining the case for unspecified reasons.

The problem started when Mansour and a number of his aides bolted into Nofal’s office at the Supreme Administrative Court of the State's Council headquarters on Saturday.

Nofal accused Mansour of aggravated assault against a public servant and defamation of the Egyptian judicial system.

Mansour and his men were contained by security but the renowned lawyer collapsed and was taken to a nearby hospital under tight security.

Mansour’s attack was provoked by the court ruling that upheld the former Minster of Youth, Mamdouh Al-Beltagi, to remove him from his post as Zamalek president.
