Dollar diplomacy ... the story of detention
Funds were not placed in the bag, but the bag cardboard seemed pointing to the attention .. leaves official carries with him rode (E.. T.) on board a Sudan Airways heading to Cairo and in possession of thousands of dollars tracking Attaché military .. it seems that the man was believed that the stock is sufficient for entry to the Cairo International Airport and out all the goodwill .. but forgot to make the most important steps for the holders of these amounts is a declaration in front of the airport customs.
However, the second error committed by the (E.. T.) that he did not tell the authorities - that stopped by and asked him about the size of the amount he carries inside the bag - an accurate answer, where he stated to them that the amount of 100 thousand dollars, but the staff administrative affairs at the airport who then reported only to find that (175) thousand dollars .. and then immediately detained the man, who was carrying a diplomatic passport!.
Report: Lena Jacob
The answer seems to be a bit confusing, made the accusations seriously confused in the minds of Egyptian officials in Cairo Airport, where the news was leaked to the local media there, which carries two key points.
The first use of the word (smuggling) funds Sudanese to Cairo despite the presence of official papers of the Bank of Sudan refers to the amount, and the second to determine who smuggled the money which is the Muslim Brotherhood, which indicated the Egyptian press that the authorities detained the diplomat and filed a against him and has to inform the security agencies to conduct investigations necessary "for fear of smuggling money for the organization of the Muslim Brotherhood."
Perhaps the concerned file of the Egyptian-Sudanese relations and those close to him knew the fact that these concerns were in the era of former President Hosni Mubarak, and disappeared in the era of Mercy to come back again in the era of Sisi .. It seems that the revelations gave a political dimension to the issue.
What happened?
Problems experienced by now some Sudanese embassies in converting dollars, which forces them to follow the rules of the old manual to carry money and dollars in suitcases and bags, and is also well known that most countries have strict laws regarding the entry and exit of hard currency, in order to avoid inflation and to set the country's economy.
Two months and a few days, did not reach the funds to the beneficiaries of military attaché in Cairo, forcing the attaché for a scholarship administrators to Khartoum to carry out money and come to Cairo.
Egyptian regulations allow Egyptian citizens and foreign guests enter the amount of 10 thousand dollars without restriction, but they are required in the event of increased amount for conducting this figure (publicity) or (announcement) to the customs authorities.
However, the administrative who was carrying amount, skip the step (publicity) and Bastiagaf surprised that airport authorities detained him and hastened to inform the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the security authorities and the embassy.
According to statements by some Egyptian media, that the head of the customs hall access number "1," he said (during the check-Customs passengers Sudanese coming from Khartoum authorities suspected in "a. T." supplement the administrative office of the military attache, who was carrying a bag in his hand when asked what holds acknowledged as 100 thousand dollars a salary embassy staff, but after that the matter to the Director of Customs has issued an order limiting the money and turned out to be 175 thousand dollars is contrary to the adoption of Annex administrative beginning which is a violation of the laws of the entry of foreign exchange, where it must to be announced if the increased about 10 thousand dollars).
Repatriation of funds for Sudan
According to informed sources I talked to (Sudanese) that the administrative contact Palmlhakah Embassy, also informed the airport authorities and the Egyptian Foreign Ministry and the Intelligence and Security Service has been investigating on the subject.
The funds were destined to military attaché (the students, staff, administrators, military attaches) and not diplomats, but it was accompanied by administrative who holds a diplomatic passport.
After contacts conducted by the military attaché and the Sudanese Embassy with the Egyptian authorities and the competent organs of the decrypted book (e. T.) remained in the (175) thousand dollars at the airport, waiting for coordination with the Sudanese Embassy to return to Sudan.
Which is what happened, where the sources indicated in her speech for the (Sudanese) that a Sudanese embassy staff, was on his way to the country, where he was handed over the amount to return to Khartoum, is scheduled according to the source to reach the money in two days to Cairo after the procedure (publicity) in front of the customs authority , stressing that nothing prevents the entry of this amount again.
