CAIRO (Reuters) - Two Canadians freed at the weekend after being held in Egypt for more than six weeks without charge are still barred from flying home, their lawyer said on Monday.

"When the men went to the airport they found there was a travel ban with their names on it and so they couldn't travel and came back to Cairo," Marwa Farouk, the lawyer representing John Greyson and Tarek Loubani, told Reuters.
