#Breaking: #Egypt executed a Coptic monk convicted for killing an abbot in an ancient desert monastery, his brother has told .@AFP. Hany Tawadros said "we were told at 8 am this morning that the execution took place in Damanhour prison & I am on my way to pick up the body" "I didn't even tell the rest of the family because I didn't want them to be heartbroken. We thank God in any case," Tawadros told me. Security & judicial sources also confirmed his hanging by rope to .@AFP, which comes a couple of weeks after at least 9 were executed #Egypt
