Egypt Tightens Security Laws to Counter 'Terrorism'
2014-04-04
[An Nahar] Egypt said Thursday it has boosted punishment for "terrorist" offenses and expanded the scope of crimes that fall under that category, a day after bombings killed a top police officer.

The legal amendments will come in force when interim president Adly Mansour approves the government-penned draft.

The cabinet did not immediately release the changes made to the law.
