The Supreme Administrative Court issued a decision yesterday to overturn a previous ruling to fine former president Hosni Mubarak along with former prime minister Ahmed Nazif and ex-interior minister Habib El Adly some EGP 540 mn for cutting electronic communications during the 25 January uprising, Al Ahram reports. The initial ruling was issued in 2011 and found the three guilty of damaging the economy as a result of the telecom shutdown. Yesterday’s ruling is final and cannot be appealed.
