Where's Hosni Mubarak?

Since Friday, there is no sign of life from the deposed Egyptian dictator. The official line is that he is in his villa in the resort of Sharm al-Sheikh. But many Egyptians believe: he has settled with his billions of wealth - in order to avoid even a punishment. Two questions concern the Egyptians: Where are Hosni Mubarak and his family fled? And where the deposed president was hiding his billion dollar fortune? In Cairo, a rumor circulated that he had settled abroad.


This reveals that the people want it lost. Several officials said Mubarak was on Friday, the day of his fall, landed by helicopter at 14 clock at his residence in Sharm al-Sheikh. Egyptian newspapers quoted unnamed military, that Mubarak was "definitely not" fled the country. The President machines are still at the Cairo airport.

Also to confirm Buzz Daily World insider, that "two helicopters on Friday afternoon, only a few hours before Mubarak's announcement of resignation, had landed in the tourist city. Previously the area had been cordoned off a wide area. "Mubarak is definitely not fled," say sources, including not want to be named.

But many people do not believe these assurances. "The good time has made just at the last moment from the dust," complains Mohammed Ali, an activist who has been standing for days on the Tahrir Square. He is wearing a sign saying: "Give us back the stolen $ 70,000,000,000! Although he would now concentrate on looking forward and how to think all the opposition members on the future of Egypt, says Ali.

"But I'm still of the opinion that we must not let them get easy Mubarak. After 30 years of autocratic rule, he must now bear the consequences for his actions." The activists believe that Mubarak had flown to Dubai or Abu Dhabi. But also includes the names of Kuwait and Oman. "I think it is possible that he has long been in the U.S.," said Mustafa Abdel Wahab, a medical student, who also spent days on the Tahrir Square.

"Washington has supported him all these years, now she will make her good friend for a quiet retirement." Mubarak's wife is in London? In Cairo, reports also made the rounds, that would be Mubarak's wife Suzanne, and sons Gamal and Alaa and their families sold abroad. They had been spotted in London, they say.

From official sources said, however, Mubarak's family was also in Sharm al-Sheikh. "Wherever they are, we will fight for the money that belongs to the Egyptian people to get back," citing the "Egyptian Gazette" in a special edition on Sunday Essam Sultan, a member of a commission charged with Mubarak's assets detect at banks around the world.

The British "Guardian" reported mid-week, Mubarak's wealth was estimated at 40 to 70 billion dollars. Representatives of the U.S. government think this is exaggerated. According to estimates of the CIA is the property of the family compound "less than five billion dollars." The "Egyptian Gazette quoted a CIA agent with the words, Mubarak's assets could be" quite legal ".

Accordingly, the U.S. had asked him alone 335 million U.S. dollars for the purchase of aircraft available. The Swiss government froze shortly after Mubarak's resignation, all bank accounts of family and close associate of Mubarak. The British government wants to block any existing accounts and to return assets to the people of Egypt, the "Sunday Times" quoted Richard Alderman, director of the British law enforcement agency for fraud.

George Ishak, leader of the Egyptian National Association for Chance, one by the Nobel Peace Prize winner Mohamed ElBaradei association set up by opposition forces, said it would "open all the files now. "We will investigate everything: the families of the ministers, the president's family, everyone," he quotes the New York Times.

Sharp criticism in Egypt against Mubarak's son Gamal, who until recently was considered a successor to the presidency. Gamal Mubarak, former banker at Bank of America is involved in business in all sectors of the country. He was regarded as the man who listened to his father. According to information from Daily Buzz World, he was the one on Thursday his father - reportedly against the advice of the military - this was advised to remain in office.

Mubarak followed this advice and made his speech, which infuriated the protesters and swell the protests on Friday was. Whether other rulers in the Arab world fear a similar fate as that of Mubarak? Libyan leader Muammar al-Gaddafi, in any case already expressed sympathy with the deposed President of Egypt.

In statements to reporters, he recalled, Mubarak had once been poor. "We then bought him clothes," he said. One should now remember that Mubarak had also achieved some of the Egyptian people.
