An Egyptian security source has denied claims that the suspect accused of killing a family in Cairo's Fifth Settlement was a police officer, saying a circulated photo was fabricated using photo-editing software.
The source said the post originated from an account it linked to the Muslim Brotherhood abroad, and that the pictured individual has never served with Egyptian police; legal action is reportedly being pursued against those responsible.
Separately, photos claiming to show a victim wearing a necklace reading 'Palestine' spread widely online, though news reports could not verify the images' authenticity.
