Egypt 'to hand Italy 2,000 page dossier on Regeni's death'

A delegation of Egyptian officials will later this week present a 2,000-page dossier to Italian prosecutors investigating the murder of Italian doctoral student Giulio Regeni, Al-Shourouk daily reported on Monday.

The report contains the main lines of investigation in the Egyptian probe of Regeni's killing and transcripts of interviews with 200 people of various nationalities over Regeni's disappearance in Cairo on 25 January and subsequent murder, the daily said.

The dossier highlights several of Regeni's acquaintances in Egypt who it claims left the country after his murder, the daily reported.

It also focuses on a bag containing Regeni's documents and mobile phones that were allegedly found in a flat belonging to the sister of a member of an alleged kidnapping gang killed in a shoot-out with police last month, as well as forensic evidence from the flat and from Regeni's computer, Al-Shourouk said.

It is understood the Egyptian delegation due to meet Italian prosecutors in Rome on Thursday and Friday includes three senior police officials and two Egyptian magistrates, named as Mostafa Soliman and Mohamed Hamady el Saied.

Rome has complained at a lack of cooperation over the case after a series of possible Egyptian versions of how Regeni might have died, including at the hands of a kidnapping gang, met with disbelief in Italy.

Human rights groups have said that torture marks on Regeni's body, found in a ditch on Cairo's western outskirt on 3 February, indicated he was killed by Egyptian security services, an allegation the government has strongly denied.

The 28-year-old Italian PhD student was researching independent trade unions and had written articles critical of the Egyptian government, the Italian newspaper that published the articles under a pseudonym said.

Regeni vanished on the anniversary of the 2011 uprising that ended ex-president Hosni Mubarak's 30-year-rule, during an unprecedented crackdown by Egypt's government on dissent.

The Italian government has publicly criticised Egypt's lack of progress in the Regeni probe, over which seven Italian police officers were sent to Cairo in February.
