The Sohag Criminal Court, headed by Judge Amr Al-Maltawi and including judges Mohamed Fawzy and Baher Hassan, issued a 15-year maximum-security prison sentence against the defendants "M.A.," a worker, and "A.M.," a laborer, after convicting them of robbing a citizen at gunpoint in the Dar Al-Salam district.

The case dates back to 2025, when the two defendants attacked the victim, "M.A.," while he was walking on a public road. They brandished a weapon at him and threatened him, then forcibly took his personal belongings and wallet, causing him severe fear and psychological distress.

After conducting the necessary investigations and securing legal procedures, the security forces arrested the suspects, who confessed to the crime before the prosecution. Consequently, the case was referred to the Criminal Court, which issued a strict ruling against them, reaffirming the firm stance of the law against violent crimes and armed robbery to maintain community security and citizen safety.
