Zamalek SC defender Ahmed Fatouh, who has been in police custody for several weeks following a car accident that resulted in the death of a police officer, may soon be released on bail. Reports suggest that the player could be freed upon payment of 50,000 Egyptian pounds.
Fatouh has been detained since early August after being involved in a fatal accident.
The incident not only led to charges of involuntary manslaughter against the Egyptian international but also brought to light a positive test for cannabis use.
Despite the new development indicating a potential release, the case is far from over.
A new court hearing has been scheduled for October 22, and a final resolution is yet to be determined.
The potential release on bail comes as a significant moment for both Fatouh and his club, Zamalek SC, which has been without one of its key defensive players during this period.
Fatouh’s return to the squad would be a boost for Zamalek, as they look to strengthen their defensive lineup.
However, his legal troubles mean his future remains uncertain.
While this latest news provides a glimmer of hope for Fatouh, his legal journey is not yet at an end.
He faces serious charges, and the upcoming hearing will play a crucial role in determining his fate.
