Egyptian prosecution accuses 'terrorist cell' of Kerdasa police raid Prosecutors charge five more suspects with carrying out the deadly attack on Kerdasa police station in August
Egyptian prosecutors have charged five suspects with establishing a "terrorist cell" and taking part in executing the armed attack on Kerdasa police station south of Giza in August, in which 11 policemen were killed. The five are also facing charges of targeting the police and army, possessing weapons unlawfully and plotting to bomb public establishments. The suspects were arrested over the past week in the governorate of Menoufiya after a campaign by security forces to capture the perpetrators of the attack. According to the prosecutor's report, rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs) and a "large number" of explosive devices and machine guns were found with the suspects upon their arrest. On 19 September, army and police forces raided Kerdasa in search of the culprits behind the August attack on the police station. Dozens were arrested in Kerdasa and neighbouring districts. Since the ouster of Mohamed Morsi on 3 July, attacks against security forces have been on the increase, leading to the deaths of over a hundred policemen. http://english.ahram.org.eg/News/83329.aspx
