Human Rights Watch: (New York) – The inquiry announced by Egypt’s military authorities into sectarian violence in Cairo on October 9, 2011 – that resulted in some two dozen dead –should be prompt, thorough, and impartial, Human Rights Watch said today.

The investigation should specifically address the killing of at least 17 Coptic Christian demonstrators who appear to have been run over by military vehicles, Human Rights Watch said.
