Yesterday in the capital city of Egypt, Cairo, thousands of Egyptian people marched to the streets in anger protesting the acquittal of former President, Hosni Mubarak, by the court of the many charges that was brought against him, especially about ordering the killing of peaceful protesters in 2011.
The protesters complained that the judgement was passed in his favour and requested that it should be reversed, because Hosni Mubarak to the best of their knowledge committed a crime against humanity, and thereby deserves to be punished by the law.
The charges against Mubarak's two sons was also discarded, but according to the case, he was being reprimanded in the Military hospital so he could complete the 3 years jail term which was earlier passed on him.
They decried that the deaths of over 900 Egyptian protesters killed in the 2011 incident cannot be in vain.
