Cairo Suspects Cooperation between Muslim Brotherhood and Hizbullah
An official from Egypt”s ruling party Jihad Awdeh uncovered that elements of the Muslim Brotherhood were members in the so-called Hizbullah cell that was arrested in Cairo recently.
Awdeh accused the Muslim Brotherhood of involvement in the distribution of currency that carried Hizbullah emblem: "Hizbullah – People of the House."
Meanwhile, Egyptian MP Mohammed Mustafa Shardi warned that there are groups promoting Hizbullah”s currency.
"There are those who are involved in the distribution of currencies of one, five and ten pounds in the Port Said district inscribed with the phrase: "Hizbullah, People of the House."
He said these currencies are frequently traded in the hands of ordinary people and accused Hizbullah of attempting to "play a political game" through the formation of groups to attack Sunnis through the distribution of money to the naïve."
Egypt”s High State Security Prosecution has reportedly confronted 14 officials of the Muslim Brotherhood after keeping close watch over them following Hizbullah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah”s Ashoura speech in which he called on the Egyptian army to rebel against the Cairo regime.
The detainees, however, denied any link or collaboration with Hizbullah, read a report by the daily Al Mustaqbal correspondent in Cairo.
The 14 men, headed by member of the Guidance Bureau Ossama Nasser, were surprised by the charge of restructuring the international branch of the Muslim Brotherhood, according to the report.
