The decision came after a video documenting the incident circulated widely on social media, showing one of the suspects allegedly posing as a delivery worker before attempting to enter the apartment.

Arrest of Suspects in New Maadi Apartment Break-In Attempt

Cairo security authorities arrested the two suspects following the circulation of the video showing the attempted break-in.

The suspects were taken to El Basatin Police Station for questioning and for completing the necessary legal procedures related to the incident.

The case gained attention after social media users shared footage showing a man attempting to enter an apartment in New Maadi before calling another person for assistance.

Details of the New Maadi Apartment Incident

According to the details of the incident, one of the suspects was wearing ordinary clothes and carrying a bag associated with a delivery service.

He reportedly knocked on the door of an apartment and told the woman inside that he was a delivery worker carrying an order from a restaurant.

The woman repeatedly told him that she had not ordered anything from a restaurant. However, he remained outside the apartment and continued waiting.

She eventually opened the door partially to speak with him in English. At that point, the suspect allegedly tried to take advantage of the partially opened door and move closer in an attempt to enter the apartment.

Woman Prevents Suspect from Entering the Apartment

The woman pushed the door forcefully in an attempt to prevent the suspect from entering.

During the struggle, the suspect's foot became trapped in the door as he attempted to push his way inside.

He continued trying to push the door and free his foot while the woman called for help. The suspect then reportedly sought assistance from another person.

Suspect Calls Another Man for Help

A second man appeared in the video and attempted to help the first suspect free his trapped leg.

The two men reportedly pushed against the apartment door in an effort to release the suspect's foot.

Meanwhile, the woman continued to call for help and refused to allow either man to enter the apartment.

Security authorities later identified and arrested both suspects, and legal proceedings were initiated before the court ordered their detention to be renewed for 15 days pending further investigations.
