Awqaf Minister Mohamed Mokhtar Gomaa slammed extremists who read the Holy Quran and at the same time kill innocent people under the cover of Islam.

In a press release, the minister wondered what wrong or harm men of police and army and other innocent people have done to be killed in a treacherous way by those extremists.

He cited a recent attack against several Military Academy cadets in Kafr el-Sheikh as an example of the warped thought of these extremists.
