Rome Court Convicts Three Egyptian Security Officials Over Giulio Regeni’s Abduction

A court in Rome has convicted three Egyptian security officials in connection with the abduction of Italian student Giulio Regeni.

Regeni’s body was found in Cairo a decade ago. It bore signs of torture.

The convictions concern the student’s abduction. The available summary does not specify the charges on which the officials were found guilty or any sentences imposed.

The ruling marks a judicial development in a case centred on Regeni’s disappearance and the discovery of his body in the Egyptian capital.
