Mubarak and Adly appeals to be heard starting 23 December

The Court of Cassation on Sunday set 23 December as the first session of an appeal hearing for the life sentence verdicts given to former President Hosni Mubarak and former Interior Minister Habib al-Adly.

Mubarak and Adly were found guilty of failing to prevent the killing of protesters during the 25 January revolution. They were sentenced to life in prison in June earlier this year.

In addition, the Public Prosecution challenged the acquittal of six former security officials in the same case, as well as the expiration of corruption charges brought against Mubarak, his two sons and businessman Hussein Salem.
