According to case details, two close friends had established a company specializing in designing and tailoring wedding dresses. The business operated from an apartment located in the Qasr El-Nil district.
During that period, one of the partners became acquainted with an actress who was working in selling handmade silver crafts. She later rented a room inside the company’s apartment to run her small business.
Disputes Between the Partners
After some time, the actress left the location to focus on her acting career. Later, personal disputes reportedly emerged between the two partners who owned the business, leading to tensions involving several individuals connected to the location.
Details of the Incident
Investigations indicate that a group of suspects allegedly forced their way into the apartment by breaking the door. The contents of the studio reportedly sustained significant damage during the incident.
Authorities also recovered tools believed to have been used in the incident, including a hammer.
Injuries Reported During the Incident
During attempts to recover company belongings and contact authorities, the mother of one of the partners intervened. Reports state that she sustained injuries after being struck by a vehicle while the suspects were leaving the scene.
Medical reports also indicated that one of the victims experienced severe psychological shock after learning about the incident, which led to temporary memory loss.
Case Referred to Criminal Court
Following the completion of investigations, prosecutors decided to refer the five suspects to the competent criminal court to face charges related to the alleged robbery and associated offenses.
The case is registered as No. 6553 of 2025 (Qasr El-Nil Felony) and No. 1434 of 2025 Central Cairo.
