Through the implementation of the directives of the President of Egypt to monitor the delivery of social protection services to the beneficiaries and collect the government dues, the investigations of the Administrative Control Authority (ACA) and the analysis of databases in cooperation with the Ministry of Social Solidarity revealed that the integrated services cards designated for people with special needs had been issued for several citizens who used them to import private passenger cars without paying the required taxes and customs duties, though they are not eligible for this.

By expanding the scope of investigations, it is revealed that some employees of social rehabilitation offices were involved in the offences of forgery, facilitating seizure of public funds and bribery in exchange for issuing these cards.

Upon presentation to the Attorney General, a warrant was issued to arrest the accused. The execution of the warrant resulted in the seizure of sums of money and foreign currencies as proceeds of the afore-mentioned crimes. Large numbers of integrated services cards issued in violation of the law were also seized, as well as national ID cards and fake medical check-up books for some hospitals and a printing machine used in forgery. The Public Prosecution then issued a decision to detain the accused on remand.
