A picture taken on February 14, 2018 shows the "Screaming Mummy" known scientifically as "the unknown man E" on display at the Egyptian Museum in Cairo's Tahrir Square.

Cairo (AFP) - The Egyptian Museum in Cairo has put on display the "Screaming Mummy" of the son of a pharaoh who may have been hanged for plotting his father's murder.

Dubbed "the unknown man E", the mummy which is not usually exhibited appears to be of a man who died an agonising death.
