According to Free Copts:

This is NOT a joke! A 56-years old Copt was arrested in Egypt for buying and eating Danish cheese!

Mokhles Tharwat was arrested by Egyptian state security agency two weeks ago and has been detained ever since.
Mr Mokhles suffers from heart disease. The conditions he faces in detainment, especially that he faces no official accusation, may be life threatening.
A Muslim neighbor of Mr Mokhles is believed to be behind the arrest...

Hmmm, my skepticism radar is going off. I know Coptic Christians face all manner of discrimination, but.....where did the guy buy the Danish cheese? Something seems off, can we get a second source to confirm?

I hear ya. More info would have been nice.
