Egypt: Over 100 Terror Suspects Arrested
To bad they didn’t arrest this one when they had the chance.
Cairo, 30 June (AKI) - Egyptian authorities have carried out anti-terror raids over the past few days and arrested 110 suspected terrorists, according to a local media report.
The Egyptian daily, al-Masri al-Youm, said on Monday that three senior terrorist leaders were believed to be among those arrested.
Security sources said that the authorities had disbanded three alleged terror cells which were considered ideologically close to al-Qaeda and active in Egypt and abroad, according to the report.
The alleged leaders of the terror cells are Muhammad Farid Faraj, Ahmad Abdel Hadi and Hisham Muhiy al-Dina.
All three controlled the mosques in which they allegedly indoctrinated young Egyptians into the al-Qaeda ideology.
Weapons, explosives, money and the plans of Egyptian institutions were found in their homes when they were arrested.
One of the most important cells operated from a mosque located on the outskirts of capital Cairo, while others were based in the area of al-Qulyubiya. All were suspected of being tasked with committing terror acts in three Egyptian cities.
The alleged terror suspects are now being detained at the al-Fium and Abu Zabel prisons where they are being interrogated by Egyptian authorities
