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

Over the past 24 hours, the efforts of the Public Security Sector, in coordination with the General Administration for Combating Public Funds Crimes and security directorates across the governorates, led to the seizure of a number of illegal trading cases involving various foreign currencies, with a total value of nearly EGP 5 million.

The necessary legal measures were taken against the suspects. Security agencies are continuing their intensive campaigns to track down and arrest those involved in illegal foreign currency trading, as part of ongoing efforts to enforce discipline in the financial market.
