CAIRO -

A wide controversy witnessed on social networking sites in Egypt against the background of what was published about the death penalty for the son of the Minister of Immigration, Nabila Makram, in the United States of America for stabbing two young men to death last April.

Although more than a month has passed since the accident and the case has been discussed in the Supreme Court in Orange County, California, which has set next June 17 as the date for the trial, the Minister of Immigration did not comment on it until Saturday.

Nabila Makram said on her Facebook page that she and her family are subjected to what she called a "severe ordeal", and are going through a difficult time after her son, Ramy Hani Mounir Fahim, 26, was accused of committing a murder in the United States, noting that the accusation is under consideration before an American court and no ruling has been issued on it. boycotted so far.

The minister affirmed her commitment to carrying out her duties in the Egyptian government in a way that does not conflict with her being "a mother who bravely faces the plight of her son," she said.

And she added, "Whatever the consequences, as a minister, I bear my full responsibility towards my position and the requirements of working with it, and I clearly differentiate between what is personal and what is public."

The minister called for prayers for her family "in this ordeal" as well as "for her son and the victims (the two) who met their Lord." Judge it,” she said.

The minister's son is facing a murder charge in special circumstances for stabbing a co-worker and a roommate in the American city of Anaheim (his residence), according to a statement issued on April 22 by the Attorney General's office in Orange County, California.

The official statement confirmed that this charge makes Fahim "eligible for the death penalty".

The case sparked controversy in Egypt between sympathizers with the minister and her son's case, and others who condemned the incident and attacked previous statements by Nabila Makram against the Egyptian opposition abroad.

And Nabila Makram said in a meeting with the Egyptian community in Canada in July 2019, "because we have no other than one country, Egypt, which includes all of us (..) We do not tolerate or say a word about it. , amid applause from the audience participating with it in the same direction.

Nabila previously worked in Egyptian embassies in countries, including the UAE and the United States, and took her position in the Ministry of Immigration in 2015 as her first minister after the return of the ministry, which was abolished 20 years ago, and was transferred to a sector of the Ministry of Manpower.

Others talked about the company in which the minister's son works, and whose director met with President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi in the presence of the Minister of Immigration.

For his part, broadcaster Amr Adib, who is close to the authority and the security services, called on the minister to request a leave of absence from ministerial work in order to relieve the political administration's embarrassment, he said.
