`Latif Yahia has answered these allegations against him and the truth of his story in an article on his website. The two journalists who are cited on this bio are not ``investigative journalists`` you can search under their newspapers to find this fact. Eoin Butler writes music and lifestyle pieces for weekend editions of The Irish Times.  Ed Ceasar, while interviewing people for the article only laid down their ``opinions`` or their ``allegations`` and did not provide proof, he used the words of others as ``proof`` the claims asserted by these individuals is not backed up by hard proof, these claims are unsubstantiated and unverified. Since the decision was taken to edit this page it has gone from being balanced to being libelous, there is nothing left on this page worth reading. Since Latif Yahia's story has been in the media now for 20 years it is curious to me that only now after the release of a movie made about his life story that it has received this amount of attention and debate. If you truly believe that this page is only here for self-promotion then I agree that it should be taken down and salted. From the answers that I have seen here on the talk page it is obvious that there is more than an eagerness to edit the page but maybe a personal vendetta against the subject Latif Yahia. Either way this page is one sided and additions that are positive are needed to balance it, I have tried to do this in the past but have been blocked. Do none of you (editors) believe that of the other thousands of journalists that have interviewed Yahia over the years did their jobs or are you just happy with what the two journalists cited have said? There are thousands of articles out there, I don't see any mention of them here. If anyone is interested enough in the article written by Latif Yahia to counter these allegation he has provided proof and photographs. (Dirty Tricks and media manipulation) The removal of some external links and ``positives`` in the article started with these editors      If this response/talk is removed I will only be able to assume that this page is being edited with a specific aim in mind, if that is so then I shall be contacting Wikipedia again to inform them of the matter and asking for the page to be deleted permanently.(  )    `
