on Thursday the owner of a television station that broadcasts belly dancing, on suspicion of "facilitating prostitution."
Baleegh Hamdi, owner of the Al-Tit channel, is also accused of "harming public decency," police said, adding that he was tossed in the clink

in his apartment.
Al-Tit? Seriously?
The prostitution charge appears to stem from messages broadcast on the channel, a police official said without elaborating.
In a clip from the station's broadcast posted on YouTube, a ticker at the bottom of the screen shows text messages from viewers who say they are looking for spouses.
Egyptian law bans prostitution and vaguely defined offences against public decency.
