Hakim runs a criminal organization that has strangled Cairo. The police and government either turned a blind eye or they're being paid off by him. Food supplies aren't being distributed to people who need them. Medical care is almost impossible to get. Look me in the eye and tell me you can leave without doing anything.

Abdul Hakim is a crime boss with ties to Talon who operated out of a compound in Cairo, Egypt.

Story

Hakim ran a criminal organization in Cairo that profited off of the people after the Anubis Project was shut down by Overwatch. He paid off the government and police to turn a blind eye to his syndicate.[1]

Hakim provided Reaper with intelligence regarding an incident involving Helix Security International, and placed a £70,000,000 bounty on a masked bounty hunter who had been sabotaging Talon operations in an attempt to lure her into a trap at his compound. This gambit inadvertently drew out both Ana and Jack Morrison, causing Reaper to reveal himself and battle the pair before being forced to retreat. Hakim escaped capture as well.[2]

He grew more cautious following the raid on his palace. He moved between his various safe houses while his associates were targeted and taken out by a mysterious vigilante named Bastet. Eventually, he too was apprehended by Bastet and turned over to the authorities. Egypt's media reported on Hakim's apprehension and the extent of his crimes, forcing the government to act.[1]

Trivia
