The family of Giulio Regeni, the
Italian student tortured and murdered in Cairo earlier this
year, on Friday posted on Facebook their photo holding an
Amnesty International flag saying "Truth for Giulio Regeni".
Cairo authorities have pinned the blame for Regeni's murder
on an alleged gang that kidnapped foreigners, all of whose
members were shot dead by police Thursday night, but Italian
prosecutors say they are not satisfied with this latest version
of events.
Paola and Claudia Regeni, Giulio's parents, said they had
no comment on the Egyptian authorities' latest account but
source close to the family said that, since it was in line with
previous attempts to blame the murder on criminals, they found
it hard to believe.
