Former President Mohamed Morsi’s aide for political affairs Pakinam El-Sharkawy has been investigated over charges of profiteering, Youm7 reported Tuesday.
A week ago, the Egyptian Illicit Gain Authority (IGA) opened an investigation into Sharkawy over acquiring 800,000 EGP ($104,847) in allowances during her occupation of presidential position. She was released without guarantees to submit the IGA financial disclosures.
She has been summoned several times for inquiries over her assets since 2013. Sharkawy had posted in April a document stating she was paid 16,000 EGP ($2,070) monthly over ten months in the post.
