94 Egyptian thugs in the dock
2001-12-03
  • An Egyptian military court heard allegations that 94 suspected Muslim militants planned to assassinate a host of Egyptians and Americans, including Egypt's president and a woman film director. "They planned to assassinate a senior official in the state while he was passing over a bridge,'' a state security officer told the court. Court sources said he was referring to President Hosni Mubarak. If convicted, the 94 men, seven of whom are being tried in absentia, will not have the right to appeal. Since the Sept. 11 attacks on U.S. cities, Egypt has referred several hundred suspected Muslim militants to military jurisdiction.
