Fahmi Rejects to Give Permission for Abbas Ibrahim's Prosecution

Caretaker Interior Minister Mohammed Fahmi has rejected to grant the judiciary the permission to prosecute General Security chief Maj. Gen. Abbas Ibrahim in the port blast probe, judicial sources told LBCI TV on Friday.

According to media reports, Fahmi’s decision is based on a legal review by the Ministry’s legal department.

“The ship Rhosus and its cargo were seized by the judiciary and there was no role or jurisdiction for General Security,” the reports quoted the department as saying.
