South Hurghada district confiscated second-hand furniture being kept on public space inside the residential blocks in the Allam area during a field campaign on Wednesday morning, the district said in remarks reported by the Egyptian outlet Sada El-Balad.
The district described the round as part of its work to keep streets clear, remove violations and maintain the look of the city. It was carried out on the instructions of Red Sea Governor Walid El-Barqi and of Maj. Gen. Ahmed Gaber, the ministry undersecretary who heads Hurghada city, to apply the rules governing street encroachments and deal with violations that affect the flow of traffic and the general appearance of the area.
The campaign was run by South Hurghada district under its chief, Ayman Sultan, with his assistant and the district's encroachments section. The furniture was seized and gathered up from inside the residential area.
Sultan said field and regulatory monitoring would continue periodically in the district's different areas, with the necessary legal steps taken against violations.
