ALEXANDRIA, Egypt — Officials in Egypt have not investigated the April 14 stabbing of Christians in Alexandria. Egyptian leaders were quick to condemn the church knife attacks that left one Christian dead and more than a dozen wounded.
In an effort to quell the ensuing two days of clashes, Egypt’s parliament announced the formation of a fact-finding committee charged with investigating the cause of the attacks and reporting its findings within 30 days. Two months later, the committee has yet to be formed. Christians are skeptical of government claims that a mentally unstable knife-wielder, Mahmoud Salahedin Abdul-Razik, single-handedly attacked three churches on opposite sides of town all on the same morning.
