Security services at the Ministry of Interior are stepping up efforts to combat illegal foreign currency trading and speculation on exchange rates by pursuing those involved in hoarding foreign currency or trading it outside the legal framework and official banking channels. The campaign aims to preserve the stability of the currency market and support the state's efforts to protect the national economy from practices that could harm the movement of money and price stability.

Over the past 24 hours, efforts by the Public Security Sector, in coordination with the General Department for Combating Public Funds Crimes and security directorates in various governorates, led to the seizure of a number of illegal trading cases in various foreign currencies, with a total value estimated at more than EGP 4 million.

The necessary legal action has been taken against the suspects, while security services continue their intensive campaigns to pursue and arrest those involved in illegal foreign currency trading, as part of ongoing efforts to impose discipline on the financial market.
