Rome's ambassador to Cairo will likely return to Cairo, but only if the circumstances surrounding the death of Italian researcher Giulio Regini are revealed, AKI Italian news agency quoted head of the Italian Senate's Human Rights Committee Luigi Manconi as saying. Regini was betrayed by his circle of acquaintances in Egypt before he was abducted, Manconi said. Manconi deplored the lack of success in revealing Regini's murderer so far, saying it was unjustified. At a press conference at the Italian Senate, Regini's parents appealed to Pope Francis I to address the issue of their son's death with the Egyptian authorities during his visit to Cairo on April 28 and 29. We have the right to know the truth for our dignity," Paula added, stressing the need for action by Italian institutions.
