Mubarak defense team permitted to amend appeal in trial on cutting communications during 25 January revolution

Former President Hosni Mubarak’s defense team will be allowed to re-submit an appeal against a verdict handed down to Mubarak, former Prime Minister Ahmed Nazif, and former Interior Minister Habib Al Adly for cutting electronic communications during the 25 January uprising, Ahram Online reports. The three were fined EGP 540 mn in May 2011 for damages to the economy resulting from cutting communications during the revolution, but appealed the ruling at the time.
