CAIRO -- The highest-level inquiry into the deaths of nearly 900 protesters in Egypt's uprising has concluded that police were behind nearly all the killings and used snipers on rooftops overlooking Cairo's Tahrir Square to shoot into the huge crowds.

The report of the fact-finding commission created by Islamist President Mohammed Morsi, parts of which were obtained by The Associated Press, is the most authoritative and sweeping account of the killings and determines that the deadly force used could only have been authorized by Hosni Mubarak's security chief, with the ousted president's full knowledge.

The Interior Ministry, which controls the police, has repeatedly rejected charges that it bore responsibility for the killings during the 18-day uprising.
