After almost five years of the attack, defendants accused of attacking Copts in Karm village in Minya and stripping an old woman nude in the streets before dragging her were arrested.
The case dates back to the year 2016, when Nazeer Ishaq Ahmed Abdel-Hafez, Abdel-Moneim Ishaq Ahmed Abdel-Hafez, and Ishaq Ahmed Abdel-Hafez attacked her to take revenge after a rumor spread about a romantic relationship between her son and a Muslim woman in the village.
