Mubarak meets his birthday in the hospital under heavy guard

Former Egyptian leader, who ruled the largest Arab country for nearly 30 years, was taken into custody in connection with charges in the shooting of demonstrators and corruption. Beside him are just his wife, Susan, and grandson Omar Thabit, as most of his closest associates and sons Gamal and Al's imprisoned Thor near Cairo. According to doctors, the health of former President Mubarak is relatively stable, but he was already a few days in depression. Nevertheless, the family still hoped to celebrate a birthday of ex-president. According to media reports, the relatives have asked one of the fashionable hotels of Sharm el-Sheikh, a cake that Mubarak will present his favorite grandson. Meanwhile, in Cairo, hundreds of kilometers from the Sharm el-Sheikh ignite debate over whether to send to jail and prosecute a former head of state. Minister of Justice in the transitional government Abdel Aziz al-Goondi said that if Mubarak is convicted in the shooting of demonstrators, he could face the death penalty – death by hanging. However, while during the interrogation of any of the former allies of the president has not confirmed the accusation. Mubarak also accused of illicit enrichment, suspected that he owns real estate and accounts abroad. But all this has yet to prove. Mubarak's supporters in late April, took to the streets of Cairo, demanding decent treatment to the ex-leader of the state. They argue that most Egyptians do not go to a demonstration at Tahrir Square, where opponents are going to Mubarak regime. They appreciate and remember all the things he did for Egypt and its people during the inning. Demonstrators opposed to the former president appeared before the court, stressing that he bears no responsibility for the unrest, which began in Egypt more than three months ago. According to supporters of former President Mubarak should leave the political scene worthy of a "head high". Observers differ in assessing the last years as president Mubarak. According to its proponents, Egypt experienced a critical stage of economic political and social reforms which were carried out smoothly and consistently, without side effects. According to official figures, over five years from 2005 to 2010 in the framework of Mubarak's electoral program was created 4.3 million jobs have built 169 hospitals and 2,3 thousand schools and 300 thousand units of housing, including social. Economic growth in 2009-2010 was 5.3%. According to this indicator, Egypt joined the list of the 30 fastest growing states in the world. For his part, Mubarak's opponents believe that the figures for economic growth are not reflected in everyday life Egypt, where a fifth of the population lives below the poverty line, about 30% can not read or write. The reason for this – corruption that accompanies economic liberalization. That is why many in Egypt, Mubarak called for care to a change of political elites. However, while nearly three months after the departure of former president, according to many analysts, start to come true is not the best forecasts. In the political arena are beginning to dominate the Islamist forces, as the new secular parties are still only at the stage of formation. Many are already talking about the possibility of establishing an Islamic state in Egypt. Parliamentary elections to be held in September, should show the balance of political forces. Date of presidential elections has not yet appointed, but it is known that none of the Mubarak or his son Gamal will not be among the candidates for the highest office.
