The Egyptian authorities are intensifying their efforts to arrest a Sudanese citizen who killed a Sudanese woman by shooting her in front of passers-by in the Giza region in southern Egypt, before fleeing the scene.

It was reported that the authorities received a report that a Sudanese woman was killed by a Sudanese citizen’s bullets in front of the UNHCR in 6th of October City.

Immediately, security forces moved to the scene of the accident, where they found a woman in her fifties dead as a result of a gunshot wound.

Investigations revealed that a dispute broke out between the woman and the man of the same nationality in front of the Commission, which developed into an argument and a fistfight. At that moment, everyone was surprised when the Sudanese citizen took out a firearm from his clothes and shot the woman, killing her instantly, and then he fled.

The Public Prosecution ordered the security services to quickly conduct the necessary investigations and hear witnesses to determine the circumstances of the incident and arrest the accused as quickly as possible.
