Law enforcement officers seized over 750kg of narcotics and raw materials, alongside unlicensed firearms and found two apartments allegedly used as drug laboratories. Khalifa denied the allegations, maintaining she had never seen drugs until she was photographed with them at the anti-narcotics authority's offices. The death sentences were referred to Egypt's Grand Mufti for an advisory opinion, and the defendants can appeal to the country's Court of Cassation.
