Mohamed Anani, el-Ramal Awwal first deputy prosecutor, ordered to detain a 45-year-old doorkeeper nicknamed el-Zinghiri for four days. He is accused of sexually assaulting street children and running a network which forced them to have homosexual sex with rich and high-up sex seekers. The prosecution is investigating, while other accused are being arrested who were involved in the network. The investigations of the prosecution have been overseen by Counselor Yasser Rufai, first general attorney of Alexandria appeal prosecutions, and Mohamed Fouad, chief of el-Ramal Prosecution. The young victims, who unveiled new surprising details to the investigators, were found inside the doorkeeper's room in the Cleopatra quarter in Alexandria. The story started when Juvenile Police officers got information about the accused assaulting street children who had run away from their families. The prosecution then arrested the doorkeeper. They also found in his den eight young victims, many photos of children wearing maritime clothes, as well as 100 pills of Viagra and sexual enhancers. The children, aged between 11 and 15 and coming from different governorates, told the Prosecution they had fled their homes because they were being mistreated by their parents. They said that after their arrival in Alexandria, they had been approached by the doorkeeper, who then brought them to shores and parks and took pictures of them without telling them why. It then emerged that the accused showed the pictures to rich homosexual sex seekers before sending them the children in exchange for money. After that, the children were forced to sell handkerchiefs and car-washing products and if they objected they were inflicted burns on their skin. Faced with the victims' testimonies and the results of the investigation, the accused confessed to willingly and usually having had homosexual sex with street children for several years.
