Two Copts murdered in cold blood in Sohag
There are rumors that the killing was by Muslim fanatics, incited by the village Mazoun “Islamic Marriage attorney” Hamdi Mohammed Hassan and the Ex-mayor Madani Mohammed Ali Osman who is influential in the village, in revenge for a rumored relationship between Muslim women and Christian man (in the generally conservative society of Egypt Muslim community find it offensive for a Muslim woman to have a relationship with a non-Muslim man while the opposite is okayed, i.e. a Muslim man can have relationship with Christian women) as a result the Christian man he to flee the village and relocate somewhere else.
Now the village is eerily silent, the police is in presence conducting searches, the Coptic community is awaiting justice, fair investigation and serious search for evidence this time that the real murderers could be found and punished.
Needless to say that the Islamisation of the Egyptian society, which the government turned a blind eye to, has made Egypt a fertile ground to Iskamic fundamentalism where attacks on Christians lives and property has gone largely unpunished.
Metropolitan Wessa, the diocese metropolitan who is currently abroad is closely following the development of events.
