Egyptian prosecutors have ordered a medical examination of a 5-year-old girl allegedly abused by a 56-year-old driver in the Zeitoun area of Cairo. The investigation was initiated after the girl's father reported the incident to the Zeitoun police station. According to the father, his daughter has been living with her mother in their family home for about four months due to marital disputes.
The accused driver, who works as a driver, was arrested and confessed to committing the crime multiple times. The police launched an investigation into the allegations and took the necessary legal actions against the suspect. The case was then referred to the public prosecutor's office for further investigation. The authorities have not disclosed any additional details about the alleged abuse.
The Zeitoun police station received the report from the girl's father, who stated that his daughter was living with her mother due to ongoing marital issues. The father's statement led to the arrest of the accused driver, who allegedly abused the child on multiple occasions. The investigation aims to uncover the circumstances surrounding the alleged abuse.
In a separate incident, prosecutors in Ain Shams ordered the arrest and appearance of the father of a newborn baby girl who was abandoned in a trash can. The baby's mother allegedly gave birth to the child out of wedlock and disposed of it in the trash can. The authorities have taken the baby into care and are investigating the circumstances surrounding the incident.
The Ain Shams prosecutors have decided to place the abandoned baby in a care facility pending the outcome of the investigation and the taking of necessary legal actions. The baby was taken to a hospital for medical treatment. The authorities have not released any further information about the case.
The two incidents have raised concerns about child safety and abuse in Egypt. The authorities have urged anyone with information about child abuse or neglect to come forward and report it to the relevant authorities. The Egyptian government has implemented various measures to protect children from abuse and neglect.
The investigations into both incidents are ongoing, and the authorities are working to gather evidence and determine the circumstances surrounding the alleged abuse and abandonment. The public prosecutor's office will review the findings and determine the next course of action.
