In Cairo, fears are growing over a 17-year-old Irish boy and his
three sisters who were arrested in the wake of a protest at a mosque, after
another sister suggested that the teenager could have been 'beaten to hell' at
the Tora prison.
The volatile situation could deteriorate further as it emerged
that former president Hosni Mubarak, driven out of office by a vast wave of
street protests in 2011, could be released from prison as early as this week.
The attack on police apparently took place this morning as two
minibuses carrying off-duty officers were driving through a village near the
border town of Rafah.
The suspected militants forced the two vehicles to stop, ordered
the policemen out and forced them to lie on the ground before they shot them to
death, according to security officials.
