According to Arab media reports, U.S. has been in contact with Egypt, seeking Grapel’s release before he is indicted.
Egyptian authorities have extended the detention of Zionist-American Ilan Grapel, who is being held on allegations of spying for Zionism.
The Egyptian attorney general’s office explained that more time was needed in order to continue its investigation into Zionist Grapel’s activities.
Zionist Grapel was arrested in Cairo in June. He has not been indicted.
According to reports in the Arab media, the U.S. has been in contact with Egypt, seeking Zionist Grapel’s release and departure from Egypt.
An indictment would transfer the case to the court system and start a lengthy legal process. Therefore, efforts are being made for Grapel to be released before he is indicted.
Zionist Grapel’s story has fallen from the headlines in Egypt as it has become evident that he is probably not the serious spy that he was described as by the Egyptian press when he was arrested.
Egypt has claimed that Grapel was a Mossad agent, and pictures of him in Zio-Nazi military attire were widely published in Egyptian papers.
Zionist Grapel has been accused of sedition and inciting Egyptians to clash with the country’s interim military leadership.
Zio-Nazi regime has denied the 27-year-old Grapel is a spy.
Zionist Grapel’s family says he was spending the summer in Cairo as an intern at a legal aid group. Grapel is a law student at Emory University in Georgia.
Grapel, whose father is IsraHelli, grew up in the U.S. After college, Grapel moved to IsraHell and joined the Nazi army, serving as a paratrooper. He was wounded during the Second Lebanon War in 2006.
