An Egyptian engineer and a former Russian officer face charges of spying for
Israel
By arabia.com Staff
UAE - CAIRO
A new espionage scandal fuel the already tense Israeli-Egyptian relations.
While Israel denied Tuesday any involvement with an espionage case in Egypt
involving an Egyptian engineer and a former Russian officer, Egypt confirmed
that both suspected worked for Israel’s Mossad spy agency.
Egypt's intelligence agency had informed prosecutors in September that a
Russian agent for Mossad had recruited Sherif Fawzi El-Filali, 35, Egyptian
engineer and introduced him to two Israeli intelligence officers.
Egypt's prosecutor general, filed complaints in the day against the suspects
to the supreme state security court, which summoned Mohammed El-Filali, the
34-year-old engineer, Egypt's Middle East News Agency (MENA) reported
November 28.
Egyptian prosecutors said that El-Filali was recruited and was later
arrested in Cairo, to stand trial on charges of spying for Israel.
The two were accused of "spying for the Jewish state's intelligence, Mossad,
receiving funds from it for supplying information on the political, economic
and military situation in Egypt, and harming the nation's interests."
Filali has received 5,000 US dollars for his collaboration with the Israeli
intelligence, MENA said. The Egyptian leading English weekly, Al-Ahram
reported that El-Filali alleged accomplice Gregory Jefins, a former Russian
army officer, is facing the same charge in absentia.
The espionage case came amid worsening relations between Egypt and Israel.
Egypt being the first Arab country to sign a peace treaty with the Jewish
state in 1979, recalled its ambassador from Tel Aviv a week ago to protest
against Israel's excessive use of force against the Palestinians.
According to official sources quoted by Al-Ahram , the two suspects both
provided Israel with political, economic and military information in return
for money.
Egyptian embassy officials in Moscow did not confirm that a Russian national
involved in an espionage case in Egypt is in fact citizen of Russia.
"This may be either someone from former Soviet states, or a Russian
national, the prosecutors don’t mean that the spying suspect is actually a
citizen of Russian Federation," the Egyptian embassy official said to the
RIA-Novosti news agency Tuesday.
Filali was arrested at home in a northeastern Cairo suburb on September 27.
Gifens was said to be outside Egypt and his whereabouts were unknown.
El-Filali will be tried before a state security court, but no date has yet
been set for the trial. Convicted spies face execution in Egypt.
An Israeli-Arab, Azzam Azzam, was convicted in Egypt of spying for Israel in
1997 and sentenced to 15 years in jail. Israel denies that he is a spy. Its
repeated attempts to win a pardon for him from President Hosni Mubarak have
failed
