Court to review petition for Mubarak’s release on Wednesday
An Egyptian court will on Wednesday review a petition for the release of deposed President Hosni Mubarak filed by his lawyer, judicial sources said. The court will convene at the Cairo prison where Mubarak is being held, Reuters reported, citing the sources. If the court upholds the petition, Mubarak will be released, as there remain no further legal grounds for his detention. However, he is being retried on charges of ordering the killing of protesters in the 2011 uprising.
