An investigation by the Egyptian Public Prosecution into the Ayat train accident, which left 7 people dead and 125 injured, found that the driver of Train No. 134 had disabled the automatic control system. The controller and stationmaster at Al-Riqqa station admitted they had failed to monitor the signal board, and the controller tampered with the signal logbook to conceal this. The prosecution ordered their detention and the assistant driver’s custody. The Prosecutor General also formed a committee of professors from Cairo University’s Faculty of Engineering to inspect the railway system and identify its shortcomings and those responsible for them. Injured passengers said the train had been travelling at high speed before the accident. Of the injured, 71 were discharged from hospital, while 43 remained under treatment and observation.
