Report: Police Accuse Egypt Lawmaker of Indecency Egypt's official news agency says state prosecutors have asked parliament's permission to investigate an ultraconservative lawmaker who police say was caught "violating public decency" with a woman. MENA reported Saturday that police questioned lawmaker Ali Wanees after stopping to investigate a parked vehicle on a desert highway on Thursday evening. In the car with him was a 23-year old woman wearing the full face veil. The report says police say Wanees and the woman were engaged in indecent behavior in his vehicle. Authorities did not know he was a lawmaker and has parliamentary immunity. In a video posted on his website, Wanees says the woman is his niece. He says he pulled the car over after she fell ill. A sheik quoted on Wanees' website says the police report is an attempt to defame Islamists ahead of presidential runoff elections.
