An official source at the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities said that strict measures will be issued following analyzing the video that spread on social media sites of a number of teenagers trying to harass female tourists in the pyramids area in Giza.
The source indicated to “Masrawy”, that the large intensity that occurred today, the third day of Eid Al-Fitr, did not enable the archaeologists in the area to control this incident, which took only a few seconds, according to the publication.
And the source continued: “Strict instructions were issued before the days of Eid al-Fitr for the presence of all archaeologists to prevent any violations that may occur from some visitors, as well as to prevent any harassment of visitors, whether Egyptians or foreigners,” stressing that this incident did not go unnoticed.
In the last hours, a video clip of a number of people chasing and harassing foreign tourists in the Pyramids and Sphinx area has spread on the social networking site Facebook.
The video clip showed the moment when the foreign girls tried to escape while a number of people were exposed to them, touching their bodies, and photographing them once morest their will.
