Leader of Egyptian Jewish Community Convicted for Fraud

The Egyptian daily newspapers reported on Sunday 11 July 2010 that Carmen Weinstein, the head of jewish community in Egypt was sentenced to three years in jail after she was convicted of defrauding Mr. Nabil Badi, an Egyptian businessman, of three million Egyptian pounds (around 520.000 US dollars).

The circumstances of the Weinstein case are connected to the fraudulent sale of a piece of real estate of the jewish community to the Egyptian businessman, Mr. Nabil Badi. Weinstein received the price of the jewish property of 3 million pounds, after what she refused to hand it over to the new owner. Mr. Badi, the new owner of the estate, then proceeded to file a criminal complaint against Weinstein, in which he accused her of a fraudulent sale and stealing his money.

Mr. Badi’s lawyer told the reporters that Weinstein had convinced Mr. Badi that she legally owned the property due to her being the President of the jewish community in Egypt. Mr. Badi discovered later that Weinstein had defrauded him.

Yitzhak Levanon (Itzik Levanon), the son of Shula Cohen, and brother of a war criminal David Kishik, the current Israeli ambassador in Cairo, became very angry with the Egyptian justice after Carmen Weinstein was sentenced to three years jail. He accused the Egyptian government of not protecting the jewish community in Egypt and asked the government to fulfill their duty and to protect jews.

Levanon sent a note protesting the sentence to the Egyptian Foreign Ministry, accusing the judiciary of “oppression and cruelty”. He said that the Egyptian judiciary reflected a bias against Weinstein because of her religion. The memorandum of the Israeli ambassador was ignored by the Egyptian Foreign Ministry because it contained a clear threat to the Egyptian government and flagrant interference in the internal affairs of the Egyptian justice.

The zionist “State of Israel” through their envoy condemned the handling of the Weinstein case by the Egyptian judiciary. The IDF radio quoted an earlier message of Levanon to the Israeli Foreign Ministry, in which he whined about receiving bad treatment in Egypt and said that the treatment of Egypt “reached a level that is hard to describe”. He suggested that “the treatment should be in reciprocity”.
