CAIRO (AP) – In an April 11 story on a court decision regarding the U.S. citizenship of the mother of an Islamist presidential candidate, The Associated Press erroneously reported that the court had ruled his late mother did not have American citizenship. The court ordered the Interior Ministry to provide the candidate, Hazem Abu Ismail, with evidence showing whether his mother was officially documented in Egypt as having dual U.S. -Egyptian citizenship.
