Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated businessman Malek sentenced to 25 years in prison
And now he and his comrades can look forward to sitting in prison for years, while mandatory appeals wind their way through the system.
[AlAhram] A Cairo High State Security Emergency Criminal Court sentenced Hassan Malek, a businessman affiliated with the banned Moslem Brüderbund group, to 25 years in prison on Tuesday.

Malek, his son Hamza, and 22 others were accused of joining a terrorist group and plotting to harm the national economy by hoarding hard currency and smuggling it abroad. They were also charged with planning to assault police and army personnel.

Malik, Hamza, and five others were sentenced to 25 years, three defendants were sentenced to 10 years, and 14 were acquitted.

Malek’s assets have been frozen since September 2014, when a Cairo criminal court upheld a decision by the prosecutor-general to freeze the assets of prominent Moslem Brüderbund leaders.

Since the 1990s, Malek has been considered one of the most prominent Moslem Brüderbund businessmen along with his business partner, the now-tossed in the clink

Malek’s commercial and industrial ventures included textile manufacturing, electrical supplies, and furniture.
