The Administrative Control Authority allegedly caught Captain al-Saeed Ali Habib, director general of al-Adabeya seaport, red-handed as he was receiving a bribe from a private company executive in order to facilitate its work and commit illegal actions.
Meanwhile, Wagdy Mohamed al-Noweishy, director of Ataka fishing port in Suez, was also arrested while allegedly taking bribes from the chair of a fish-drying plant for exporting banned fish and smuggling subsidized diesel fuel.
The two cases were referred to Suez prosecutors. Investigations are still underway.
