Middle Eastern Man Accused of Smuggling Bulk Cash to Egypt
Middle Eastern Man Accused of Smuggling Cash
Our client, a businessman who owned several convenience stores, was stopped at the airport because a cash sniffing dog apparently alerted to him. Though he had declared that he had less than $10,000 with him, he had well in excess of the declaration. The government moved to seize all the money and charged him with three separate counts of smuggling cash. He was acquitted of all counts and the government had to return all of his money.
