More Egyptians to be added to UN al-Qaeda file
The UN Al-Qaida and Taliban Sanctions Committee is set to add the names of seven Egyptians this weekend on its consolidated list of individuals and entities related to those two terrorist organisations, a Security Council source told KUNA on Friday.
The seven are Hani Youssef Al-Sibai, Madhat Mursi Al-Sayyid Umr, Al-Sayyid Ahmad Fathi Husayn Alaywah, Zaki Izzat Zaki Ahmad, Abdullah Muhammad Rajab Abdl-al-Rahman, Muhammed Ahmad Shawqi Al-Islambuli and Ali Saad Muhammad Mustafa Bakri.
Egypt actually presented the committee last March with 20 names. Three committee members - The US, UK and Denmark - held the names until Egypt provided evidence. They lifted the hold on only the seven names because the evidence is "convincing". The Egyptian mission was not available to describe what the charges are.
