Illegal Gains Law
This is what the Egyptian law is called. It's to do with banking, money laundering and corruption, and how to avoid these problems in transactions :-)
I hope the following link helps:
http://www4.worldbank.org/legal/legop_judicial/ljr_conf_pape...
In view of the close linkage between crimes of corruption and crimes of moneylaundering where the delinquents seek to conceal the illegal source of theircriminal proceeds through local and international money laundering operations inorder to legalize their gains, a legislation should be enacted prohibiting suchmoney laundering operations. This is a matter under study especially since Egyptjoined the United Nations Vienna Convention of 1988. Certain provisions,however, contribute to combating money laundering such as the Illegal GainsLaw, the Protection of Values Law, the Penal Code, and the Law AgainstNarcotics.
I suppose this would come under the law of fraud in the UK, with different acts of law to deal with the specific offence committed. Are there any mentioned in the contract?

I'm not aware of the contents of this law, so it may be any of the possibilities above - it may help if you provide more context.
