Two young Egyptians, aged 22 and 25, were hanged in prison on Monday for the 1999 rape of a woman whom they kidnapped, judicial officials said. 

 

Convicted rapists El-Sayed Mustafa al-Malki and Walid al-Said al-Tubgi were executed in Zagazig, situated in the northern part of Egypt. 

 

In April 1999, they kidnapped a woman after stabbing and wounding her husband.  

 

The woman was dragged off to a remote field and raped at knife point, a court heard, AFP reported. (Albawaba.com)
