The Dubai court issued a ruling ordering Lebanese media personality Neshan to pay 50,000 AED in compensation to Egyptian media figure Yasmine Azza. The legal dispute began following an incident during the Arab Media Forum in Dubai in 2023. The crisis stems from Neshan’s comments during a session hosted by Yasmine Azza after he was late to arrive, which she found offensive, leading to the escalation of the conflict to courts in the UAE and Egypt. In Dubai, the Court of Cassation upheld an earlier verdict convicting Neshan and imposing a fine of 10,000 AED in March 2025. Meanwhile, an Egyptian court in April 2025 sentenced him to one month in prison with bail and ordered him to pay a provisional civil compensation of 50,000 Egyptian pounds for slander and defamation. Legal proceedings continued as Neshan appealed in Egypt, leaving the dispute active and multiple in its legal pathways.
