CAIRO, July 9 (KUNA) -- Arab League Secretary General Nabil Al-Araby strongly condemned on Tuesday the killings, violence and aggression witnessed in Cairo yesterday morning.
In a statement by his office, Al-Araby expressed his condolences to victims' families by saying "such weird acts were completely out of political culture of the Egyptians and away from traditions we cherish." The League also called for self-restraint and not to be dragged into instigation or escalation, to protect Egypt's peace and people.
Al-Araby called to immediate form an investigation committee, which would included independent figures capable of preparing a comprehensive report on the case, as soon as possible. (end) mfm.mb KUNA 092129 Jul 13NNNN
