Egypt Requests States Freeze Mubarak's Funds 
---------------------------------------------



Egypt has asked the United States, Britain and France to freeze the
assets of officials close to former President Hosni Mubarak. However,
both Washington and Paris said that Mubarak was not on the list.
Switzerland has already said it has frozen assets that may belong to
Mubarak. Some press reports suggest the Mubarak family may be worth as
much as $70 billion.
