Mubarak trial resumes Egypt

Text

CAIRO, Feb. 11 (UPI) -- An Egyptian court heard Saturday from the lawyer for the former head of state security under ousted leader Hosni Mubarak, officials said.

Khaled Soliman is defending the former head of state security, Hassan Abd El-Rahman, accused of plotting to kill protesters during Egypt's revolution, al-Ahram Online reported.

Mubarak, his two sons, Alaa and Gamal, and former Interior Minister Habib El-Adly, together with his six assistants, were at the trial.

All if the defendants face charges they ordered the shooting of protesters during last year's 18-day uprising that toppled Mubarak.
