(opens the publisher’s site)Al-Ahly president Mahmoud El-Khatib has dropped all legal cases against broadcaster Medhat Shalaby after accepting his public apology.
- Shalaby apologized in a Facebook video on October 13, saying he relied on a false source about El-Khatib's US visa.
- Legal counsel Mohamed Osman announced that El-Khatib accepted the apology and instructed him to withdraw all cases against Shalaby.
- A formal withdrawal was filed with the Economic Court, ending the defamation suit scheduled for October 14.
- The dispute began in September 2025 when Shalaby questioned El-Khatib's stated health reasons for not traveling with the team to the United States.
- The Cairo Economic Court adjourned Shalaby's trial to October 21 for a ruling after El-Khatib's defense withdrew the case.
