Cairo, Sept 19 (Aswat Masriya) – Egypt's new prosecutor general Nabil Sadeq was sworn in on Saturday before President Abdel Fatah al-Sisi along with a newly-appointed Cabinet.

Sadeq replaces assassinated prosecutor Hisham Barakat, who was killed on June 29 in an explosion targeting his motorcade.

Acting prosecutor general Ali Omran had filled the position until Sadeq's appointment.
