After a questionable patent .. !!!
After the Egyptian Court of Cassation on Thursday acquitted former President Mohamed Hosni Mubarak of the killing of protesters during the January 25 revolution in a final verdict, there are still other cases in which Mubarak is facing trial.
Mubarak is currently accused of two cases, the first the issue of illegal gain and the second issue of gifts Ahram, but the issues under investigation.
The first case in which Mubarak is accused of illegal gain awaits the investigation of the Commission of Experts on the charges against him, while the Criminal Court has previously ruled that there is no basis for the prosecution of the case of Al-Ahram gifts. The Public Prosecution challenged the decision before the Court of Cassation. .
The ruling of the Egyptian Court of Cassation issued in the case of the killing of demonstrators is final and enforceable and can not be challenged again.
Mubarak's lawyer, Farid al-Deeb, defended Mubarak's verdict on the verdict, which had been made public by Habib al-Adli, the interior minister under Mubarak and six of Adli's aides.
Mubarak responded to a question to the judge in the court today, what he attributed to him from the charges of the Public Prosecutor's Office on the killing of protesters, saying: "did not happen."
The Cairo Criminal Court sentenced Mubarak in June 2012 to life imprisonment after he was convicted on charges related to the killing of 239 demonstrators, but the Court of Cassation overturned the verdict and ordered a retrial before another chamber of the Cairo Criminal Court.
The new chamber ruled in November 2014 that the criminal case could not be prosecuted, but the prosecution challenged the verdict before the Court of Cassation, which accepted the appeal last May and decided to re-trial for the second and final time before it.
In January 2016, the Court of Cassation upheld Mubarak and his two sons, Alaa and Gamal, for three years in a corruption case involving the transfer of funds from the presidential dues during his rule to homes and offices owned by him and his sons.
Egyptian authorities are holding Mubarak, aged 88, inside the Maadi Military Hospital based on medical estimates of his condition.
