Chicago-area man sentenced to 18 months for conspiring to ‘straw purchase’ handguns for illegal export to Egypt

Omran Ismail, 53, of Burbank, Illinois, purchased four handguns in November 2013 from a licensed firearms dealer in Tinley Park, Illinois. He then immediately transferred the guns to co-defendant Ola Sayed so that she could smuggle them to Egypt. The guns were discovered in Sayed’s checked luggage at Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport as she attempted to board a flight to Cairo via London.
