Coptic Workers Arrested for Fencing a Church-Owned Vacant Plot ‘Without Permit’

-

 

 

In exclusive remarks to MCN, Fr. Stephanous Shehata of Samlout Diocese said Abu Hennis is a small village in Samalout and has an Orthodox church on an area of 40 square meters, which is way too small to accommodate the big number of Coptic worshippers. A new larger area of land was dedicated to build a larger church or expand the old one.

 

The priest added that the Coptic workers started to erect a wall around the plot, but security forces arrested them because the construction was made without official permits from the concerned authorities.
