Army freezes assets of three former Mubarak aides
CAIRO: Egypt's army rulers froze assets belonging to three former aides of deposed President Hosni Mubarak, meeting a demand of reformers seeking tough action against figures of the past administration.
The decision on Monday applies to Fathi Sorour, the former speaker of the lower house of parliament, Safwat El-Sherif, a senior member of the one-time ruling party and head of the upper house of parliament, and Zakaria Azmy, one of Mubarak's senior aides, Egypt's official news agency MENA reported on Monday.
