The Egyptian channel Al-Hayat announced that the program "Sabaya Al-Khair" presented by Reham Said has been suspended.

The Journalists Syndicate Council decided to prevent Reham Said from practicing any media activity until the legal status with the Syndicate was reconciled, following the investigation of the Sabaya program on Al-Hayat channel, which dealt with the issue of obesity and aroused the resentment of Egyptian women.


The union also decided after its emergency meeting, yesterday evening, to inform the public prosecutor against Reham Said regarding the exercise of media activity in violation of the rules of registration in the union.

During her "Good Girls" program, Saeed described the overweight people as a "burden on the state and their families," with some considering her talk out and insulting.

A video clip of her television program appeared on the websites, in which Riham appeared to say that "the traitorous people are dead, a burden on her family and the state, and they distort the view."

"Your view is not sweet and you are in abaya or jalabiya and you are not able to walk, by inspecting some of your femininity."

She also said that "obese women" will find someone to marry her only if she is "obese" like her, she said.

Many described the presenter's statements as also racist, and some accused her of contempt for a particular class of society whose precarious physical conditions prevent her from providing a price for treatment where obesity can often be a disease or exercise, and some have called for her to be tried for bullying.

In a video circulating heavily, the actress Engi Wejdan responded to Riham, addressing her with harsh criticism, culminating in the response of the artist Zina on Twitter, saying that Riham is the burden on the state "by blood, lying, and claiming illness."

Her criticism did not stop at the Egyptian interior, but reached Arab artists and media professionals.

For her part, announced the Egyptian media through a video on her account on the social networking site "Instagram", it will not return to the practice of television work, saying, "I do not review again, you served me with your decision, I stopped a lot, but my age I said I do not review, I need closer From our Lord and take Bali from my children and Josie.
