BBC: Egypt's feared former Interior Minister, Habib el-Adly, has denied charges of corruption at the opening of his trial in Cairo."It didn't happen," he said to allegations of laundering money and unlawfully acquiring public money.
He was arrested in mid-February, days after President Hosni Mubarak resigned in the face of popular protest.
The hearing was adjourned to 2 April as the defence argued for more time to study court papers.
Mr Adly appeared in the dock dressed in white prison clothes, and delivered his answers in a calm voice, an AFP news agency correspondent reports. >>> | Saturday, March 05, 2011
