Mubarak to Stand Trial in August 
---------------------------------



An Egyptian court has announced ousted president, Hosni Mubarak, will
stand trial in early August on charges of corruption and the killing of
protesters. Mubarak’s sons will be tried on charges of corruption at
the same time. The case marks the first time in modern history that an
Arab leader has been toppled and tried by his own people.
