An Egyptian kung fu champion has been stripped of a gold medal after showing support for ousted President Mohammed Morsi, according to his family.

埃及一位功夫冠军因支持被罢免总统穆罕默德·穆尔西而被剥夺金牌。

Bassem Youssef shot to fame with his witty lampooning of public figures

Mohammed Youssef has also been banned from representing his country.

Mr Youssef was photographed at a tournament in Russia wearing a T-shirt with a symbol showing solidarity with pro-Morsi protesters.

Egypt"s government has cracked down on supporters of the former president after he was deposed in July.

Mr Youssef"s brother Hammam says the athlete was sent home early from the contest and interrogated(询问) on arrival, reports the BBC"s Orla Guerin in Cairo.

The gold medal he had won was confiscated(充公,没收).

Freedom of speech

State-run media pictured him receiving the honour in a T-shirt emblazoned with an open palm and four fingers - the symbol of a pro-Morsi camp violently cleared by the authorities.

"Kung fu player Mohammed Youssef will be deported from Russia due to his behaviour," Egypt Kung Fu Association executive officer Gamal El-Jazzar told Ahram Online.

"He will also be banned from representing Egypt in the coming Kung Fu World Championship."

It is unclear if the ban will be permanent.

Hundreds of protesters died when security forces stormed two sit-ins in the capital in August.

Our correspondent says the punitive action against Mr Youssef will add to growing concerns about freedom of speech under Egypt"s new military-backed government.

Meanwhile, Egypt"s state prosecutor has ordered an investigation into complaints against popular TV satirist Bassem Youssef after he mocked army chief Gen Abdul Fattah al-Sisi in the first programme of his new season on Friday.
