Three Egyptian rape suspects have been handed over to the Egyptian authorities by interpol.

Ahmed Helmy Toulan, 32, Amr Hussein Mahmoud Ismail, 30, and his brother Khaled Hussein Mahmoud Ismail, 33, were arrested in Lebanon.

Egypt requested for their extradition to face rape charges at home.

They are among nine suspects to be charged with the rape of a young woman at Fairmont Nile City Hotel in the capital, Cairo.

The alleged rape involved nine men accused of drugging the woman in 2014.

The case was exposed online in July by an instagram account that outs alleged rapists.
