Under heavy guard, toppled president Hosni Mubarak was transferred Saturday from Sharm el-Sheikh hospital to the International Medical Center of the Armed Forces, located near Cairo.
According to medical sources, Mubarak was flown on a military plane that landed at a military base near the hospital, along Cairo-Ismailia high road.
Military reinforcements and soldiers from the special forces were sent to guard the hospital, where he is detained pending investigation.
Mubarak had been admitted to Sharm el-Sheikh hospital after the attorney general decided to investigate him on charges of inciting the killing of protestors and gaining illicit funds. Mubarak's condition is not critical, and he is only suffering from the symptoms of aging, according to media reports.
