#Badrashin crash : One Way ticket indeed .. to death !!

Posted on 03:36 by Unknown
And in less than two months , we have another horrifying train crash. This time it is in Badrahsin and the trains are freight train and Conscripts train coming from Upper Egypt !!
According to official Ministry of health statement 19 were killed and over 100 were injured. Mostly from young conscripts who finished their training in the Central Security forces، the passengers came from Miniya heading back to Cairo so they would be assigned to their new locations in the CSF.
It is not the first time Badrashin witnesses a train crash.  In fact historically this could be the third time it happens in this area !!!
Here is a horrifying testimony form the survivors

The conscripts are reporting that there were 1200 conscripts squeezed in the train and that they were extremely mistreated by the high rank conscripts of the ministry of interior.There is no light in the train nor bathroom. 6 conscripts are being seated in one place when the train seats takes two only !! According to eye witnesses locals and survivors helped the injured.

Here is a photo gallery from Jonathan Rashad who took amazing sad shot , dear friend Lina Al Wardani and Shahab El Din from the location. The conscripts train is not a military one but rather a civilian one according to Colonel Ahmed Ali and that those conscripts were following the the ministry of interior and not the defense.   The sad irony that shows the true government failure in Egypt is how the PM , our current PM sent his condolences to the ministry of defense early this morning as he thought the victims  were army conscripts where as the ministry of defense sent its condolence to the ministry of interior because the victims were CSF conscripts !! The cabinet takes its info from the internet as it seems. 
No communication or information what so ever !! This is in disaster time !! Can you imagine in decision making process !!!?
It is said that PM Qandil tried to visited the location but failed after he was kicked out of Badrashin by angry locals. He visited later the injured in Maadi military hospital along with the minister of defense.
Nevertheless the Conscripts trains are usually the worse when it comes to quality. The conscripts already complained in Upper Egypt from its constant problems. It reportedly broke down in several stops.
As usual the ministry of the social insurance decided to issue a compensation to the victims : LE 15,000 to the dead and LE 2000 to the injured. The prime minister raised the compensation as usual.
Now I can not believe the Muslim brotherhood supporters who are claiming that this is a deliberate accident planned by the opposition specifically by the National Salvation front !!! I am not speaking about a small time members but big mouth members like pathetic Ahmed El Mogheer who demands the public prosecutor to investigate the front !! El Mogheer also believes that there is a deliberate plot against the Upper Egyptians who support Morsi !!
MB points out to a conspiracy against Morsi !! "Ghost3amr"

The only evidence those pathetic losers got apparently is how fast ONTV Live transferred a live broadcast from Badrashin train crash !!!!!!!!!!! Well ONTV Live did what any other channel should do especially those channels in the Media city in October , they can sent a camera and correspondent in no time to Badrashin for God sake. Already those idiots forgot that ONTV was sold to a Tunisian Media tycoon who is not related to the National Salvation Front !!
Sadly those idiots did not pay attention to the fact that ONTV Live and other reporters and journalists reached to the crash site before the ambulance !!!
Already I do not understand how on earth the Egyptian TV aired a comedy film last night and only announcing the news in the news bar
A group of activists and protesters in Cairo and Alexandria are thinking of blocking the railways in both governorates to protest against the failure of the Egyptian state railways. 
Update : The locals in Badrashin blocked the railways to protest against the frequent train accidents The survivors from the new conscripts are reporting sad and disgusting treatment. They are humans dear ministry of interior for God sake !!
