My name is Jamal al-Sayed Hassan Yusuf, I am from Alexandria.
Interior ministry paid five thousand pounds to every of us,
to shout "Tahiya Mubarak" (Long live Mubarak) and clash with his opposition.
We were about 30 people.
I want to state reasons why I took the money
My mother died, and I am only who sustains my family
I can not leave my brothers and sisters helpless to die from hunger.
I called to Al-Jazeera and Al-Hayat, to tell them what I did,
Different voice: - You were given five thousand pounds?
Yes.
Different voice: - And how many are you?
We were many, about 30 people. We were hired by official of interior ministry.
