Sheikh Ahmed Awwad's Kidnapping Attempt
A group of individuals threatened to kidnap Sheikh Ahmed Abdo Awad, chairman of "Al-Fath" channel and a well-known program host, by using cars supported by impersonating police officers in the Al-Furadous neighborhood of 6 October City. The Sheikh resisted the situation, and security authorities successfully identified the gang's identity and arrested them within hours. The suspects demanded a ransom of 5 million Egyptian pounds, but the Sheikh managed to negotiate and reduced the amount to 150,000 pounds before his release along with his companions, whose personal belongings were also confiscated. Subsequently, the police pursued and apprehended the suspects by tracking their movements and using surveillance cameras. The case has been referred to the Public Prosecution to investigate them on charges of impersonating authority figures, kidnapping, and extortion.
