Cairo thieves get 15-year sentence for gold theft
The Court of Cassation in Cairo upheld the verdict of a 15-year prison sentence for seven defendants, after their conviction for stealing gold jewelry valued at 65 million Egyptian pounds from a gold factory in the gold market area of Cairo. The crime occurred on March 17, 2025, when the accused used heated firearms and an automatic rifle to forcibly threaten individuals transporting the gold ornaments while moving them from the factory to its affiliated office. The defendants and the weapons used in the crime were seized, and investigations confirmed there was a premeditated agreement among the perpetrators to carry out the theft, utilizing weapons and unlicensed transportation means. As a result, 14 kilograms and 225 grams of gold were stolen against the owners’ will.
