Egypt Police Kill Sharm Bombing Suspect
(Reuters) Egyptian police in the Sinai peninsula shot dead on Wednesday one of the men suspected in the bombings which killed 67 people in the resort of Sharm el-Sheikh in July, the Egyptian Interior Ministry said. Moussa Mohamed Salem Badran, a resident of El Arish, had refused to surrender and opened fire on policemen who tried to arrest him in the Mount Halal area. "Badran played a prominent role in preparing and carrying out the Sharm el-Sheikh attacks," the ministry said. Egyptian authorities say the bombers are Sinai Bedouin, some of them with Palestinian connections.
