The Public Prosecution in Egypt ordered the imprisonment of the famous blogger, Hader Atef, her sister-in-law, Hajar Mahmoud, and the latter’s husband, Tamer Adel, after accusations on them of swindling, fraud, and illegal appropriation of citizens’ money surfaced.
The Public Prosecution also ordered the immediate arrest of Bilal Mahmoud, the husband of Hadeer Atef, as he is a fugitive and accused of the same charges.
The story of Hadeer Atef unveiled on social media, after her mother appeared in a video clip claiming that unknown persons had kidnapped her daughter in retaliation for her fugitive husband who seized their money, and the mother also claimed that her daughter was divorced as soon as she learned of her husband’s illegal practices.
The authorities revealed that they had received reports from 16 citizens accusing the famous fashion blogger and her registered husband, and his sister and her husband, of fraud and defrauding them by obtaining sums of money by deluding them into owning a group of companies working in several fields, including cars, real estate and securities trading, claiming to invest that money for them in exchange for financial profits. .
During the security interrogation, the arrested defendants admitted to receiving money from the victims amounting to more than one million pounds, under the pretext of investing it in exchange for profits, but they did not do so and did not return the original amounts.
