Two days after the resumption of street violence in Egypt, back to bite the old rais Hosni Mubarak, overwhelmed and forced to resign last February 11 by the wave of protests that had inflamed the North African country. Strikes once also the attorney general of Cairo where the chief prosecutor Abdel Maguid Mahmoud decided that the old leader and his sons will be asked to clarify their position in the face of accusations of abuse of power, embezzlement and especially about the role Mubarak and his family who were in accidents in January, during the demonstrations that would soon have caused their fall.
In his first message from his dismissal, the former president explained the reasons for his resignation and attacked those who argue that possession of substantial funds deposited outside of Egypt. "I left my office as president by giving precedence to the interests of the country and the people - said Mubarak - I have served the country with honesty, and I can not remain silent in front of the smear campaign against the reputation of myself and my family" .
Speaking to Al Arabiya, the former head of state said he was the victim of a smear campaign and added that reserves "to take legal steps" toward those who tried to ruin his reputation and that of his family.

" According to many observers, one vote so close to would only encourage parties with a solid organizational structures behind, on one hand the Muslim Brothers, on the other hand, the National Party of former President Mubarak. "In Egypt is implementing a conspiracy to kill the revolution", has reported that Salah has pointed the finger at all the parties have agreed that it "does not change anything."
