In this article published on February 11, 2008, The New York Times makes reference to the January 29 court ruling in favor of the Baha'is:
"On Jan. 29, another ruling by the Court of Administrative Justice prohibited the Egyptian government from withholding official documents to Baha’is. Baha’is, a small religious minority in Egypt, were forced to register as Christians, Muslims or Jews, the only three options approved by the government. Those who refused to accept any of those three were penalized: they could not register their children in school or open a bank account, for example."
