On 8 July 2021, a police force arrested content creator Moka Hegazy while she was in Hosary Square in the Sixth of October City, against the background of what the security services called an immoral video clip she posted on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube.
A police report carrying No. 5679 of 2021 was filed, and the Public Prosecution began questioning Hegazy on accusations that included infringing on public morals and inciting vice by publishing videos on social media. Hegazy was held at a care home pending investigation.
Hegazy, is active on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, where she posts dancing videos. She interacts with comments from her followers on these platforms.
The Public Prosecution ordered the arrest of a person named Moaz on charge of helping Hegazy to commit the crimes under investigation, but we have not been able to know his fate so far.
On 15 February 2022, the North Giza Juvenile Prosecution referred Hegazy to the Juvenile Court on charges of practicing prostitution with men without discrimination in return for money, and offering herself in a public manner that contained temptation to practice debauchery.
On 24 February of the same year, the Juvenile Court in Giza sentenced Hegazy to one year in prison.
On 13 May 2023, the Court of Appeal (the fifth circuit) on 13 May rejected Appeal No. 14376 of 13 filed on behalf of Moka Hegazy and upheld a two-year prison sentence against her. Thus, Hegazy has exhausted all degrees of litigation, and the verdict has become final.
