Investigators: Mossad recruited Egyptian for his proximity to officials’ relatives

Police investigations have revealed that alleged spy for Israel Tarek Abdel Razek Hussein had managed to convince Israeli intelligence agency Mossad that he enjoyed close relations with several Egyptian officials, to whose sons he once gave Kung Fu lessons.

Judicial officials expected to hear Hussein’s case have announced that they plan to convene a press conference before the trial's first session. They went on to request that the news media handle the case with caution, as Hussein had provided large amounts of information that he claimed to have obtained from the son of an Egyptian official.

Hussein’s relatives, meanwhile, have returned to their homes in Cairo's Haddayek Al-Qubba district after having left the neighborhood in the wake of Hussein's arrest.
