Come to the attention of "the Copts-united" that the security services prevented the prayers on the body of one of the Coptic woman without providing any justification for that.

Copts feel sad and regret for what happened, especially since there is no justification for doing so. The sources said of " Copts-united,": the Copts do not have any place to pray but this place only as a church while the nearest church is far more than 5 km away, and if the authorities have agreed to declare the building of spiritual services, there is no more important than prayers on the dead or to pray in the street.

Copts were ready for the funeral of Mrs. Nour Muawwad and Copts took permission of their Muslim neighbors to pray on Tuesday evening, however, that the security authorities were ready to attack them, and the people of the village is now trying to contact some lawyers to resolve this problem for fear of recurrence of the events of 2006 and discuss how to practice religious rites in the lack of formally approved to date.

Mentioned that the village witnessed the unfortunate events of 2006 when he tried to pray in the village, one of the buildings to house schools, declared Sunday and spiritual services were prevented by force from the Muslim citizens were burned dozens of houses and shops owned by Coptic.
