Arrest of a Money-Laundering Gang in Aswan Worth 90 Million EGP
Egyptian authorities uncover a criminal network in Aswan that laundered 90 million pounds from drug trafficking through real estate and car purchases.
In a major security operation, Egypt’s Ministry of Interior announced the arrest of seven individuals in Aswan accused of laundering nearly 90 million Egyptian pounds, proceeds from drug trafficking activities.
Investigations revealed that the suspects — including five with prior criminal records — used their illegal gains to purchase real estate, agricultural lands, and vehicles, disguising their origins and making them appear as legitimate business investments.
The total value of the laundered money was estimated at around 90 million pounds, according to official reports. The ministry emphasized that this crackdown is part of a broader national effort to combat organized crime and money laundering by tracing illegal wealth and seizing assets linked to criminal activity.
Meanwhile, in Kafr El-Sheikh, police conducted a security campaign that led to the arrest of three suspects, the seizure of five firearms, and a quantity of heroin prepared for distribution — part of ongoing efforts to maintain public safety and order.
