The dispute between Egyptian artist Ihab Tawfiq and an Egyptian businessman has attracted widespread attention, amid a dispute over a villa owned by Tawfiq, as the businessman accused him of fraud after entering into a agreement of sale, without having completed the necessary legal procedures to transfer ownership.
Accusations of businessmen
The businessman officially accused Ihab Tawfiq of fraud in connection with the purchase of the villa, noting that Tawfiq refused to carry out legal procedures related to the validity of the contract, although he received the full agreed price.
The businessman confirmed that he has not yet been able to transfer ownership of the villa into his name.
Businessman Statements
The businessman issued a statement on the official page of artist Ihab Tawfiq’s company Facebook, calling for a solution to the existing dispute.
He said he had purchased the villa from the artist earlier, but incomplete legal documents made it difficult to transfer ownership, causing him heavy financial losses, especially after he had to sell the villa.
Case Details
The businessman explained that Ihab Tawfiq sold the villa to him twice: the first to him in 2015, and the second to his father in 2019.
He added that he has legal documents proving these transactions, including a power of attorney to sell the villa in 2015 and a contract to transfer it in 2019 in favor of Tawfiq’s father.
He also pointed out that Tawfiq had lost several court cases related to his counterfeiting accusation.
In his letter, the businessman demanded that Tawfiq withdraw his concession from his father or give him a new contract proving his ownership of the villa.
Ihab Tawfiq replied
In his response to these accusations, artist Ihab Tawfiq denied the merits of the accusations, emphasizing his intention to take the necessary legal measures against the businessman.
Tawfiq said the businessman failed to comply with the terms of the agreed contract and the charges against him were not based on any legal evidence.
