The government under the former Mubarak regime stole land belonging to the Religious Endowments Ministry and built over it with new projects, Religious Endowments Minister Mohamed Abdel Fadil al-Qousy has said, adding that he knows nothing about these new projects.
Speaking from Mecca, where he is heading the Egyptian pilgrimage mission, Qousy said he is responsible for the safety of all Egyptian pilgrims. “I personally check the expiration dates of the canned food,” he said.
He also warned travel agencies against faltering in the services they render to the pilgrims.
