The captain of the acting professions in Egypt, Ashraf Zaki, said that the star, Adel Imam, is still alive and in good health.
Zaki’s statements came to local newspapers on Sunday, again denying rumors of an imam’s death.
Zaki said, “If this news was true, the necessary measures would have been taken, and the news would have been announced to everyone,” according to what was reported by the “Cairo 24” website.
Regarding Imam’s failure to appear recently, and the possibility of filming a video with him to reassure the public about his condition, Zaki said: “It is not appropriate for me to ask the family of the artist, Adel Imam, to photograph him to end the controversy about his health.”
Producer Essam Imam also confirmed, in statements to Egyptian media, that his brother, artist Adel Imam, is in good health, “and what is circulating unfounded rumors.”
He added, “The family is fed up with the many rumors that are written every once in a while, and whoever writes news about the leader being sick or retiring does not find anything to do, and I do not know what to say to the promoters of these rumors, and God Almighty, the leader is like a fool.”
