Wednesday''s Papers: Mubarak barred from accessing Alex library account, fire at Interior Ministry
Published in Almasry Alyoum on 23 - 03 - 2011

State-owned newspaper al-Ahram stated that former President Hosni Mubarak is prohibited from any dealings with the $143 million Bibliotheca Alexandrina account in Al-Ahly Bank.
An Egyptian court on Tuesday approved a request made by Egypt's Illicit Gains Authority asking it to bar Mubarak from accessing his bank accounts. The account was allocated for donations to the library, but library administration said it did not know the account existed.
Al-Ahram also wrote that the Supreme Council of Armed Forces would release a new constitutional communiqué Wednesday, pending the creation of a permanent constitution, and that the stock market would reopen after being closed for 55 days. It reported that Anas al-Fiqqi, former information minister, and Youssef Boutros-Ghali, former finance minister, were referred to criminal court for misuse of public funds.
Police officers started a fire at the Interior Ministry and asked the minister to resign, according to the independent newspaper Al-Dostour. The paper also reported that Mubarak's son Alaa Mubarak owns 16.2 million stocks in Palm Hills, and young Copts are planning a sit-in near the state TV building Friday with a new list of demands, including the prosecution of those involved in burning a Coptic church in Helwan earlier this month.
Al-Dostour reported that Dr. Mahmoud Gamei suspects Mubarak in the assassination of late President Anwar Sadat. Former First Lady Jehan Sadat told the newspaper that if the accusations are true, she would confront Mubarak even if she would have to go to jail after.
On page four, Al-Dostour writes about enthusiasm regarding the future relationship between the Coptic Church and the Muslim Brotherhood after a reported phone call between Brotherhood Supreme Guide Mohamed Badie and Coptic Pope Shenouda III.
On its front page, Al-Wafd, the newspaper published by the liberal Wafd party, writes that television employees are threatening to cut TV signals and take over all the studios. The workers began a sit-in on Sunday demanding the resignation of the heads of their networks and channels.
Al-Shorouk reported that Alaa Mubarak and Gamal Mubarak are shareholders in the Palm Hills development. The independent newspaper states that Alaa Mubarak owns around 24 million stocks in real estate enterprise, valued at LE29 million.
The Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has recalled its charge d'affaires from Libya, according to Al-Shorouk. The newspaper also wrote that a third Muslim Brotherhood party has formed. Hamed al-Dafrawy, a party leader in Alexandria, declared the formation of the "Peace and Development Society for the Nile Valley and the Arab Orient."
