Egypt's Public Prosecution's headquarters.
The defendants also face charges of brandishing violence, deliberate disturbance, and insults, according to a prosecution statement.
Nakhnoukh and several associates were arrested in early June following an incident linked to a financial dispute at a luxury car dealership in New Cairo, prompting a broader investigation by authorities.
The Public Prosecution has ordered precautionary measures against Nakhnoukh and the other defendants, including asset freezes and travel bans, pending the outcome of the investigations.
Nakhnoukh was previously convicted in a high-profile 2013 case after security forces raided his villa in Alexandria. In May 2013, the Alexandria Criminal Court sentenced him to 25 years in prison on charges including illegal possession of firearms, forgery of official documents, and the unlawful possession of dangerous wild animals.
He also received an additional three-year sentence for possession of narcotics for personal use. Egypt's Court of Cassation upheld the sentence in 2014, but Nakhnoukh was released in May 2018 after receiving a presidential pardon.
