Reports: Mubarak Refusing Food Ahead of Trial 
----------------------------------------------



Egyptian state media reports ousted president, Hosni Mubarak, is in an
exceedingly weakened state and is refusing to accept food in his
hospital detention. The 83-year-old is set to face charges of ordering
the killing of protesters and corruption next week. Mubarak’s health
has become the subject of much speculation in Egypt, with many arguing
he is using health claims to delay his legal proceedings.
