An Italian security delegation arrived in Cairo on Friday on a several days' visit to follow up investigations into the ambiguous death of Italian young man Giulio Regeni in Cairo.

During the visit, the delegation will meet with a number of Egyptian security officials on the probe and the circumstances of finding the body of the youth.

Regeni, 28, disappeared on January 25, after leaving his home in Giza to meet a friend. His body was found on a road on Cairo's western outskirts on Wednesday.
