Gang of pedophiles caught
Published in Daily News Egypt on 01 - 12 - 2006

CAIRO: Reports of death squads kidnapping and killing children in the slums of Brazil a few years ago shocked the world community.
But who could have imagined something as sinister arising in Cairo?
The local press reported on Wednesday the arrest of two men in connection with the murder of 14 boys.
Evidence of the crimes first began to surface when the corpses of children were stumbled upon in different cities. The victims bodies were buried alive or dumped in the Nile or in some of the Shubra metro station's underground passages as well as in the sewage system.
The corpses of the victims, who reportedly hail from Cairo, as well as other provinces including Qalubia, Alexandria, Beheira, Beni Suef and Gharbia, continued to pose a big puzzle for the police until Ahmed Samir Abdel Menem, 18, and Mohammed Al-Suweisi, fell into the police trap.
Investigations revealed that the duo were part of four pedophiles who used to entice street children frequenting train stations into boarding the top of the trains, where they forced them to take off their clothes and molested them. The boys were then thrown naked under the train wheels moving in opposite directions or in areas close to the scenes of molestation.
Abdel Menem and Al-Suweisi confessed to having killed the boys in collaboration with their other accomplices nicknamed Buka, Bazaza and Turini.
The first two culprits admitted to having killed a child from Tanta, identified as Mohamed Kamal, for having acted as a material witness in court against Turini who was sentenced to jail as a result. After Turini was released, he ordered the gang to liquidate the boy.
A search for the other criminals is being carried out with the help of the two accused who are also guiding the police to the whereabouts of the victims bodies.
