Lawyers critique handling of Mubarak trial - Features - Al Jazeera English


On Sunday, Egyptians witnessed a rare spectacle: representatives of two different ousted political regimes went on trial on the same day.
In one Cairo courtroom, a court heard a case against six Muslim Brotherhood members - including the group's spiritual leader Mohamed Badie and two of his deputies, Khairat El-Shater and Rashad Bayoumi - on charges of inciting the killings of protesters on June 30. Badie, El-Shater and Bayoumi did not appear in court for security reasons, and the case was postponed to October 29.
In another courtroom at the Cairo Police Academy, the judge presiding over the case against former president Hosni Mubarak for involvement in the killings of demonstrators in Egypt's 2011 uprising, promised that the case would proceed with "integrity".
