According to an official statement issued by the Ministry of Interior Affairs, the security forces were able to unveil a Muslim Brotherhood-plan aiming to destabilize the county’s security and stability along with targeting several vital facilities and buildings of the Interior Ministry, the Armed Forces and judiciary.

The communication between the outlawed group in Cairo and the fugitive members in Turkey were taking place on three different levels, according to the statement.

The three secret groups were aiming at smuggling foreign currency outside Egypt, smuggling unwanted and highly dangerous members of the brotherhood from Turkey to Europe and providing financial support to Muslim Brotherhood members in Egypt, allowing them to carry out violence acts in the country.
