The Egyptian prosecution ordered on Sunday a 15-day detention of four soccer fans charged with inciting riots during a recent match in the capital Cairo, media reports said. The four defendants from "Ultras Ahlawy", a group of supporters of Egypt's number one Al-Ahly soccer team, have also been accused of inciting violence and vandalism during Al-Ahly's match with Gabon's Monana in the African Champions League earlier in March, Xinhua reported.
