Ousted Egypt president Mubarak freed from detention, says lawyer

Egypt's ousted president Hosni Mubarak left a military hospital on March 24 where he had spent much of the last six years in detention, his lawyer said.
Mubarak had been cleared for release earlier this month after a top court finally acquitted him of involvement in protester deaths during the 2011 revolt that ousted him.

Egypt's Mubarak could get early release: lawyer

Egypt's jailed ex-president Hosni Mubarak could be released early after having served two-thirds of a corruption sentence and seeing murder charges dropped, his lawyer said on Nov. 30.
      
An Egyptian court on Saturday dismissed the murder charge against Mubarak over the deaths of protesters during the country's 2011 uprising.
