"Egyptian security detained an Egyptian-German student pro-Palestinian blogger who helped organise a demonstration in support of the Gaza Strip, his family and a rights group said on Sunday. Philip Rizk, a 26-year-old postgraduate student in Cairo, was detained on Friday in Qalubia, north of Cairo, where he and other activists had organised a protest in solidarity with the Gaza Strip, his sister Jeanette told AFP."
