Tuesday evening, a delegation from the Coptic Orthodox Church, headed
by acting patriarch Anba Pachomeus, visited Mursi. The delegation
included Bishop of Youth Anba Moussa; Bishop of Aswan Anba Hedra; and
Anba Angelius, secretary of Anba Pachomeus as well as Judge Edward
Ghaleb, secretary-general of the Melli (Community) Council; and Judge
Malak Mina, head of the Coptic Endowments Authority.
The Church
delegation offered support to the new president, while it confirmed that
Copts in their capacity as Egyptian citizens demanded equality and
non-discrimination. They also demanded that the unified law for building
places of worship and the family law for Christians should find their
way into Parliament.
