Arrested in 2025 during a massive raid that seized over 750kg of drugs and unlicensed firearms, Khalifa broke down in court, insisting she’s innocent and had never even smoked a cigarette — claiming her faith and upbringing made drug money unnecessary. Prosecutors painted the group as an organized criminal network importing chemicals abroad. Egypt’s harsh laws mandate capital punishment for drug trafficking, and while the court consulted the grand mufti, Khalifa’s fate now hinges on whether she appeals — though no decision has been made yet.
