Verdict expected Thursday in ex-interior minister trial

The Giza Criminal Court is scheduled on Thursday to issue its ruling on profiteering and money laundering charges against former Interior Minister Habib al-Adly.

In October 2010, Adly allegedly ordered his subordinates and officials from a development company in charge of building housing units for police officers to find a buyer for a piece of land he owned.

Adly's lawyer said he was innocent of the charges.

Adly also stands trial for involvement in the killing of protesters and creating a security void during the 25 January revolution. His trial on those charges was adjourned until 21 May.
