Security services at the Ministry of Interior are continuing to step up efforts to combat illegal foreign currency trading and speculation on exchange rates, 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 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, resulted in the seizure of a number of illegal trading cases involving various foreign currencies, with a total value estimated at more than EGP 13 million.

The necessary legal measures were taken against the suspects in these cases, while security services are continuing their intensive campaigns to pursue and arrest those involved in illegal foreign currency trading, as part of ongoing efforts to enforce discipline in the financial market.
