Responsible individuals in Ramsis crash will pay for their negligence: PM

CAIRO - 27 February 2019: Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouli affirmed that those who caused the collision of a train locomotive in Cairo's Ramsis Railway station will be severely punished.

A train locomotive earlier declined and crashed into a buffer stop on platform 6, causing the fuel tank of the locomotive to explode.

Madbouli said that those who fail to perform their duties and thus harm the lives of the Egyptian people will be punished. He added that a technical high-level committee was formed to investigate the incident.

Social Solidarity Minister Ghada Wali stressed on Wednesday that rescue and relief teams of the Egyptian Red Crescent and the Social Solidarity Directorate were sent to Cairo's Ramses train station to offer any help to families of victims, MENA reported.
