Egypt: Chief Perpetrator In Cathedral Incidents Arrested – Security Source

WO-AL613_EGPOPE_G_20121104155327Security bodies on Thursday arrested a chief perpetrator in last Sunday’s Cathedral violence which left two people dead and scores injured, a senior security source said.

Legal procedures are being taken against the accused, the state news agency reported the source as saying.

Interior Minister Mohamed Ibrahim had ordered the formation of a search team to arrest perpetrators in the cathedral’s clashes.

Clashes had broke out last Sunday in Cairo’s Ramses Street outside the Coptic Orthodox Cathedral in Abbasiya during a funeral for Copts who were killed last weekend in sectarian violence.
