Moamen Zakaria, the former Al Ahly and Egypt national team star, posted a new photo on his official Instagram account, capturing a moment of relaxation on a beach during his summer holiday—a scene that sent messages of reassurance to his fans who follow his news closely.

The image received wide engagement from his followers, who expressed their joy at seeing him in a state of calm and comfort, especially given the difficult health challenges he has faced since retiring from football. Through their comments, the audience affirmed their ongoing support for him, considering him an inspiring example of patience and determination.
While Moamen continues to receive thousands of messages of love and support, the dramatic “fabricated witchcraft” case against him has entered a new chapter in the public eye. In a final ruling, the Khalifa Appeals Misdemeanor Court upheld a three‑year prison sentence with labor for five defendants, and fined each of them 100 Egyptian pounds, after convicting them of spreading false news, defamation, and inflicting severe psychological harm on the player.

During the appeal session, the defense for the fourth defendant attempted to excuse his absence by citing compelling circumstances—the death of a relative—but the court stressed that personal attendance is mandatory in appeals for misdemeanor cases. Consequently, the original judgment from the first‑instance court was affirmed, and the excuses were rejected.

The case began when the Public Prosecution received an official complaint from Moamen Zakaria, in which he stated that the first defendant—during a televised interview—claimed that he and the other defendants had discovered “witchcraft” aimed at the player at a cemetery in the Khalifa area. Those statements spread rapidly and caused widespread uproar.
In his complaint, Moamen Zakaria emphasized that these allegations caused him significant psychological shock, especially given his delicate health condition, prompting him to take legal action against those he described as abusers who exploited his name and health status for fame or to stir controversy.

Investigations proved that the entire incident was fabricated and the allegations were baseless, revealing that the sole aim was media sensationalism, with no regard for the psychological and human harm inflicted on the player.

Sports circles praised Moamen Zakaria’s legal measures, stating that they send a clear message to anyone who seeks to profit from others’ suffering, and stressed the necessity of holding accountable anyone who spreads false news or engages in unwarranted defamation campaigns.

Meanwhile, a large number of fans and athletes on social media voiced their full support for the player, noting that Moamen Zakaria still holds a special place in their hearts—not only for his outstanding performance on the pitch but also for his noble character and patience in facing illness.

Amid continued popular and official support, Moamen Zakaria’s story remains a living example of willpower and an honorable portrait of a true athlete who confronts challenges with dignity and silence, determined to live his life without letting circumstances break him, despite all hardships.
