A German doctor who treated former President Hosni Mubarak while he was in power received anonymous letters threatening his life if he examined Mubarak again, Hosni Mubarak’s lawyer Farid al-Deeb said on Monday.
The letters said that Mubarak should be left to his fate and pay the price for his atrocities, said the lawyer.
“This is why he was replaced with Dr. Yasser Abdel Kader,” Deeb explained, adding that Mubarak’s psychological state has improved since he was moved to a military medical center.
He has also confirmed that Mubarak would attend all sessions of his trial, but did not say if he would be lying on a bed during the hearings.
Sources said that only four security personnel are guarding Mubarak’s suite, and that his presence did not affect the admittance of other patients to the center.
