Egypt has arrested three workers at Red Sea hotel for 'endangering guests' lives' after 50 foreign tourists were hospitalised with food poisoning following dinner.
They were admitted to hospital after they had dinner over the weekend in a hotel in the beach resort city of Hurghada, which is popular with tourists for scuba diving.
Egypt's chief prosecutor Hamada el-Sawy said in a statement that the workers, including the hotel's head chef, face accusations of endangering the guests' lives.
The workers denied the accusations, the prosecutor's statement said.
The sickened tourists include 14 Estonians, 29 Russians and four from the Czech Republic. Many have been discharged from hospital after their conditions improved, it said.
