Filming Of Egyptian TV Series Halted After Islamist Students Complain Of Actresses' 'indecent' Clothes Filming of an Egyptian TV series at a university in Cairo reportedly was halted after Islamist students protested against "indecent" costumes worn by the actresses, AFP reported. Cairo's Ain Shams University had given Misr International films, the production company, permission to film on its campus, Gaby Khoury, head of the company, told AFP. "When the shooting started, the director of the engineering faculty, Sherif Hammad, came to tell us that some students and teachers were against it, because of the clothing worn by the actresses," he said. The show is set in the 1970s, "when women wore short clothing." Islamists have become increasingly prominent in Egyptian society in recent years, winning a large stake in the new government this year in the first parliamentary elections since the ousting of Hosni Mubarak, the longtime president.
