CAIRO – 4 June 2022: Giza Criminal Court has sentenced Karim El-Hawary, son of a prominent businessman, to three years in prison for killing four while driving at an excessive speed under the influence in Sheikh Zayed city. He has been also accused of possessing cocaine for personal use. Surveillance cameras in the scene of the incident showed Hawary while driving his car at a very high speed and hitting another car from behind. Most of the victims were below 18 years of age. In March, two lawyers of Hawary were sentenced to six years in prison over attempting to illegally obtain and spoil the CCTV footage that recorded the high-profile car accident while pretending to be prosecutors.
