The director of the Saqqara Archaeological Zone, Dr. Mohamed Youssef Aoyian, confirmed that she “did not violate the law and the regulation, and entered the area with valid tickets, and photography is permitted, as long as she was in an open area, and her clothes were contrary to Egyptian customs, but many of the visitors to the area, both Egyptians and foreigners, wear similar clothes. And legally, zone workers have no right to prevent them except in the case of committing an indecent act that is punishable by law. "
