Egypt's embassy in Mexico has been contacting Mexican authorities to restore Egyptian antiquities that date back to the Pharaonic age.
The antiquities were seized on the US-Mexican borders last week during a smuggling operation to the US.
In statements Friday 10/08/2012, Egypt's Ambassador to Mexico Ibrahim Khairat said that the Egyptian Embassy notified the Antiquities Ministry of this incident and contacted the Mexican authorities to restore those relics.
