UK fails to freeze Mubarak-era assets

Bbc Online
The UK government is failing in its commitment to freeze assets of the regime of former Egyptian leader Hosni Mubarak, a BBC investigation found yesterday.
Publicly available documents reveal property and companies linked to key figures in the Mubarak circle that have been unaffected by sanctions.
Egyptian officials accuse the UK of hiding stolen
wealth and breaching international anti-corruption accords.
The UK says itisdoingasmuchasit can to trace the funds.
Reports that President Hosni Mubarak and his inner circle stole tens of billions of dollars helped fuel the revolution which overthrew him on 11 February last year.
Three days later, UK Foreign Secretary William Hague told parliament the UK would co-operate with an Egyptian government request to freeze the assets of several former officials.
But it was a further 37 days before Britain and other EU states applied the sanctions - a period when Egypt says the accused officials were able to move their money elsewhere.
About $135m of assets belonging to Mubarak, his wife, two sons, and 15 other Egyptians have now been frozen in the UK.
But the BBC investigation found assets that have apparently been missed.
The publicly accessible Companies House register reveals that one of those named on the sanctions list, Naglaa al-Ghazaerly, wife of the former housing minister, was able to register a company in her own name in
London in November 2011, seven months after her assets were ordered to be frozen.
Another similar document shows that a London investment company, Medinvest Associates, co-founded by Mubarak's younger son Gamal, and still belonging to a Cypriot firm he helped run, continued operating until it dissolved itself, voluntarily, in February this year -11 months after sanctions were imposed.
Meanwhile there is no indication on Land Registry documents of any freeze on the large house worth between £8m and £10m in Wilton Place, off Knightsbridge in London, that was Gamal Mubarak's UK home for many years until the Egyptian revolution.
