Shel Israel posts followup to Egypt Twitter Story

Shel Israel done some follow-up on the James Karl Buck story about a UC Berkeley journalism student who used Twitter to notify his friends of his arrest in Egypt.

Shel writes:

But, Buck was told by police that his interpreter, Mohammed Maree was arrested and “he is a dead man.” Since arriving here today. Buck has been doing his best to raise Hell on behalf of Mohammed. On his Twitter account he asks that anyone who cares contact Egyptian Press Consul Attiya A Shakran, (415) 346-3427 [email protected] (415) 548-0556
