Egyptian court rules to notify Interpol for arresting fugitive contractor Mohamed Ali

CAIRO – 25 July 2021: An Egyptian court ruled on Sunday to notify International Interpol to arrest Egyptian fugitive contractor Mohamed Ali and two other aides.

 

 

The terrorism court held at the Tora prison complex ruled to notify the International Interpol to quickly arrest Ali and 2 others after being charged with inciting violence, publishing false news, and joining the banned group of the Muslim Brotherhood.

 

 

The fugitives are charged with publishing false news about the economic situation in the country, with the intent of disturbing public order.

 

 

Ali has first fled to Spain where he posted videos criticizing the regime starting September 2019 and later moved to the United Kingdom.

 

 

In November 2019, the Public Prosecution referred Ali to a criminal court on charges of VAT evasion two weeks after he was sentenced to five years in prison by the Tax Evasion Misdemeanor Court.
