Dr. No’man Goma’a, head of the Wafd Party hosted the delegation of the banned Brotherhood at the party’s headquarter for 140 minutes. Information leaked about the meeting varied between: implying the possibility of a new alliance between the Wafd and the Brotherhood, similar to the alliance they made in the parliamentary election of 1982, and suggesting the infiltration of the Wafd Party by the Brotherhood after the disappearance of the Labor Party, the traditional ally of the Brotherhood.
