Rail officials detained
The Public Prosecution ordered the detention pending investigation of the controller and stationmaster at Al-Raqqa station in connection with the collision between two trains in the Ayat area of Giza. Both admitted negligence in monitoring the control panel, and investigators established that the controller had tampered with the signal logbook to conceal it. A technical examination found that the driver of Train No. 134 had disabled the automatic control system. Injured passengers reported that the train had been travelling at high speed since leaving Ayat station. The Public Prosecution is holding the assistant driver until he can be questioned. The Attorney General also formed a committee of professors from Cairo University’s Faculty of Engineering to inspect the railway system and determine the cause of the accident and who was responsible.
