Selim Zaki Pasha, chief of police in Cairo, today issued a flat denial of Arab press reports that there is a Jewish terrorist organization in Egypt. “I formally declare these reports are untrue,” Zaki said.
He was commenting on a report from London to the Egyptian newspaper Al Misri allegedly quoting Scotland Yard officials as stating that Jewish terrorists were active in Egypt and that the police had arrested 30 of them.
