On Monday, Al Arabiya TV channel quoted sources as saying that security bodies have re-opened some files of the banned Muslim Brotherhood organization's case in Egypt since 2012.
The sources added that Egypt provided European countries with information about charitable societies affiliated with the terrorist Muslim Brotherhood (MB), indicating that a big number of the MB-fugitive affiliates fleeing to Turkey had begun to pump large investments in Libya.
Al-Arabiya sources also indicated that the current Egyptian investigations revealed a Muslim Brotherhood's scheme to establish projects in the Gulf countries.
They added that Cairo informed Gulf countries with accurate intelligence information about the Brotherhood’s movements, stressing that MB-affiliated members had deported from Kuwait in coordination with the group leaders in Turkey.
The Egyptian investigations also revealed that the MB affiliates had recently transferred their funds to Iran, as well as their attempts to infiltrate Arab communities in Europe.
Notably, Egyptian authorities detained Abdul-Latif Shehab, transportation minister in the cabinet of late President Mohamed Morsi, local media reported on Saturday evening.
Abdul-Latif, who was detained from his house east of Cairo, is the second minister from Morsi's cabinet to be detained in the space of one week over claims of joining the "banned" Muslim Brotherhood.
Prior to Abdul-Latif, Egyptian authorities detained the former Minister of Manpower and Immigration Khaled al-Azhari from his home over claims he joined a "terror group and funding terror activities".
Al-Azhari was transferred to the Public Prosecution for investigation. He denies the charges.
The state-owned newspaper Akhbar Al-Youm said: "The detained former transportation minister is a member of the terrorist Muslim Brotherhood and he is in contact with its leaders in exile."
