The Cassation Court started on Thursday the retrial of former president Hosni Mubarak over his involvement in killing peaceful protesters during the 2011 January revolution.
Mubarak, 87, was originally sentenced to life in prison in 2012 for conspiring to murder 239 demonstrators, triggering chaos and creating a security vacuum during the 18-day revolt, but an appeals court ordered a retrial.
In November 2014, the Cairo Criminal Court dropped the case against Mubarak and acquitted his Interior Minister Habib al-Adly and four of his aides on charges of inciting and aiding the killing of protesters.
The verdict was appealed in December 2014. In June 2015, the Court of Cassation ordered a retrial of Mubarak to be held in November.
