Egypt's ElBaradei condemns 'barbaric assault' on Khaled Dawoud
[Al Ahram] Former Constitution Party leader Mohammed ElBaradei expressed his grief over the stabbing of party front man Khaled Dawoud on Friday.

Dawoud, a former front man for the anti-Morsi opposition bloc the National Salvation Front, was stabbed in his chest and hand on Friday in central Cairo.

Shortly after the assault, Dawoud told Al-Ahram Arabic news website that he was attacked by protesters while driving his car down Qasr Al-Aini Street in front of Abou Al-Rish Bridge.

He told Al-Ahram that his car was attacked and protesters pulled him out of the vehicle, beat him and stabbed him with a knife.

"The barbaric assault on Khaled Dawoud ... reflects the size of the tragedy we're living," said former vice-president ElBaradei via Twitter, adding that he wished Dawoud a speedy recovery.

Dawoud, a staunch opponent of Mohammed Morsi
...the former president of Egypt. A proponent of the One Man, One Vote, One Time principle, Morsi won election after the deposal of Hosni Mubarak and jumped to the conclusion it was his turn to be dictator...
and the Moslem Brüderbund, resigned from the NSF in mid-August to protest the group's support for the violent dispersal of two large protest camps established by supporters of ousted president Mohammed Morsi.
