| Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated businessman Malek sentenced to 25 years in prison | |
| 2019-05-01 | |
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 Into the paddy wagon wit' yez! deputy chairman of the Brotherhood in Egypt, Khairat El-Shater. Malek’s commercial and industrial ventures included textile manufacturing, electrical supplies, and furniture. | |

| #3 It seemed like the MB was on the run in the U.S. until BHO came along. As I recall, CAIR was much consulted during the George W. Bush years, JohnQC. They were claimed to be the moderate Moslems, after all. |

| #1 It seemed like the MB was on the run in the U.S. until BHO came along. If Trump has the MB declared a terrorist organization in the U.S., it wouldn't be off the mark IMHO. |
