Hosni Mubarak, Bedridden, Wheeled into Egyptian Courtroom
(Washington Post) Ernesto Londono and Leila Fadel - Ousted Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, bedridden and looking sickly, was wheeled into the cage of a Cairo courtroom Wednesday to be put on trial for allegedly ordering the killing of protesters earlier this year. Mubarak, 83, who ruled Egypt for three decades, had not been seen in public since he delivered a defiant speech on Feb. 10, vowing he would not resign. Mubarak is being tried alongside his sons Gamal and Alaa, who are charged with corruption.
