Egypt Police Arrest Sex Swingers

W460

Egyptian police have arrested a married couple who advertised on Facebook to sexually swap spouses and to host orgies at their Cairo apartment, a security official said on Saturday.

The case involving a 30-year-old accountant and his wife of the same age had been referred to prosecutors, the official said, adding that their Facebook posting had been titled "Wife-swapping."

In April 2009, a Cairo court sentenced a man to seven years and his wife to three for setting up a swingers' club, according to their lawyer. The court said they confessed to having sex with other couples.

Extra-marital sex is generally frowned upon in Egypt, although couples go ahead with it after obtaining informal marriages, and could lead to prostitution charges.

Lovely. The state should mind its own business. Don't they have more important things to deal with?

The government should not raise and parent its citizens. Either Egypt is a free country, or it's not.

Increasingly, freedom is becoming a rare privilege in the middle east.
