48 people were referred to military judiciary on accusations of being members of Daesh and for allegedly being involved in three church bombings, Reuters reports. “Public prosecutor Nabil Sadek said in a statement on Sunday that some of the suspects held leadership positions in Islamic State and formed cells in Cairo and the southern province of Qena to carry out the church attacks… The referral to the military judiciary paves the way for the suspects to face military trial,” the newswire notes.
