Coptic lawyer Mamdouh Ramzi is leading a battle against the Muslim Brotherhood in the Bar Association. He is demanding that the president founds a Christian Law Branch, to contrast with the Islamic law [Shari’a] branch. Christian lawyer Naguib Gabriel rejects all religious committees inside the association, fearing they would cause conflicts between Muslims and Copts. Ahmed Helmi, member of the Islamic legislation committee, agrees with Ramzi.
