Monday 29-04-2013 02:51 PM
A Cairo criminal court on Monday acquitted former Housing Minister Ahmed Al-Maghrabi of charges of squandering public money and illegally seizing state-owned lands worth L.E. 25 million.
The prosecution had accused Maghrabi of profiteering during his time in office. He was sentenced to five years in prison.
He was acquitted in 2012, but he faced a retrial.
