Cllr. Mohamed Hamd el-Gamal, former head of the State Council said, “Egypt’s Interior Ministry and the Muslim Brotherhood adopted a plan to eliminate Copts and media.”
He added that arresting Coptic activists, who had been injured during the aggression that targeted the Copts in the cathedral, reflect the discrimination exercised against Copts by the ruling regime.
Speaking to MCN, Gamal noted that the authorities have not arrested those people who attacked the cathedral, although the cameras monitored a large number of them carrying firearms to attack the people in the cathedral.

“According to the Penal Code, the arrest of any citizen cannot be conducted without providing the serious evidences.”
He denounced the arrest of the Coptic activists, saying that such actions reflects the current security problems and the absence of the rule of law.
