Farid al-Deeb, the lawyer of former president Mohamed Hosni Mubarak, said that his client does not have any assets or property of any kind outside Egypt. Deeb said, in a press release, that some media outlets have been publishing "false news" about Mubarak's possession of money and assets outside Egypt, and that these media continued to repeat "lies" without any evidence. Mubarak returned to his home in Heliopolis on Friday, after Attorney General Nabil Sadeq approved on Monday a prosecutor's decision to release him. Mubarak has been in custody since the January 25 Revolution that toppled him in 2011. He has been charged in several cases and acquitted in all of these except the 'presidential palaces' case.
