Egyptian news sources say the two Canadian men imprisoned in Cairo may be behind bars for more than two weeks, while their case is examined.

Egyptian news agencies say a judge has ordered the two be held for 15 days while prosecutors investigate their case. The men are reportedly among dozens accused of being involved in the Muslim Brotherhood, and of trying to storm a police station in Cairo. The Harper Government says it’s doing everything it can to have the men released.
