Egypt’s Copts Coalition commemorates ‘Maspero’ martyrs, demands re-investigation

Egypt’s Copts Coalition will attend, along with the families of the “Maspero” martyrs, a mass to commemorate the fourth anniversary of the Maspero Massacre on Friday.
 
The event will take place at the Archangel Michael Cathedral in the Sixth of October City, where the martyrs are buried.
 
Coalition coordinator Fady Youssef said the mass will include poems, psalms, choral songs and an operetta by the Augustine group.
 
The coalition also demands a re-investigation into the massacre to clarify certain lingering ambiguities, but refused to make of it an international issue as such an action would be against the group's principles.
