Egypt - Mubarak 'not a tyrant', defence lawyer tells trial

Published on Jan 17, 2012 by
http://www.euronews.net/ Hosni Mubarak was a 'just man, not a tyrant', according to his lawyer.

The former Egyptian President was again wheeled into court on a hospital trolley for his latest appearance at his trial.

He listened to the defence argue there was no legal case against him.

Unlike previous occasions when cameras have been present, this was a closed session.

Mubarak is a man with clean hands and a pure heart, the lawyer said, claiming the case was only brought because of public pressure.
