Egypt Press - August 7

Egypt's press reported the defense demands to summon the chairman of the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF), Hussein Tantawi, in the case of cutting off communications and Internet services during the January 25 Revolution.
The Egyptian newspapers also highlighted saving a number of people who attempted to illegally immigrate through Egypt's naval forces and reported on the effects of the trial on Mubarak's health.
Youm7:
The newspaper reported the investigations with Egypt's former Minister of Interior, Habib al-Adly, carried an unexpected surprise. The investigations revealed Egypt's General Intelligence has video clips of the events in Tahrir Square during the Egyptian January 25 Revolution, including the Friday of Anger and the Battle of the Camels.
Such a clip will answer many questions that raised controversy among Egyptians recently about claims about snipers, weapons used against the demonstrators and details of the Battle of the Camels.
Youm7 also published the first official report issued by Egypt's Public Prosecutor about the properties of former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and his family. The report was prepared after examining the complaints submitted about Mubarak and his family.
Al-Ahram:
Al-Ahram reported the rescue of 81 citizens from sinking during their attempt to illegally immigrate to Italy by Egypt's naval forces.
Egypt's Cabinet approved a plan for democratic change and to restore security in Egyptian streets. The plan included a timetable to achieve the Egyptian revolution's objectives, in addition to preparations for the next parliamentary and presidential elections.
The plan also focused on drafting a new constitution to rule Egypt, a plan for the immediate release of political prisoners and restructuring the Ministry of Interior.
Al-Akhbar:
Al-Akhbar newspaper focused on Mubarak's health, which improved after the first judicial session of his trial. The doctors attributed the notable improvement of Mubarak's state to the improvement of his psychological condition.
Egyptian Minister of Manpower, Ahmed al-Boraei, is working to end the problem of the yellow remittances, which was suspended 21 years ago. It is expected the final agreement will be signed between the two governments to restore U.S. $408 million related to 637 Egyptian citizens.
Al-Masry Al-Youm:
Judicial sources said the appeal is submitted by Mubarak's defense against the rule of the High Administrative Court in the case of cutting off communications and Internet services during the January 25 Revolution.
The sources said Mubarak's defense said the decision of cutting off services was issued by a ministerial committee, lead by Egypt's former Prime Minister, Ahmed Nazif, and the membership of the Ministers of Interior, Defense, Telecommunications and Information.
Al-Masry Al-Youm reported there is a special nursing staff to serve Mubarak in the presidential suite of the International Medical Center. Sources said his wife, Suzanne Mubarak, and their grandson visited Mubarak yesterday. Sources added Mubarak received a number of phone calls from princes of Gulf states.
Al-Shorouq:
The case of cutting off the communications and Internet services dominated the headlines of Al-Shorouq. It said the documents of the high administrative court proved the innocence of the chairman of SCAF, Hussein Tantawi.
While military experts viewed Mubarak's situation from Tantawi in this case as retaliation from the Armed Forces, which is biased to those in the January 25 Revolution, which led to Mubarak's resignation after thirty years of rule.
The newspaper also underlined the split within the April 6 Movement. About 80 percent of the members formed a new front called the April 6 Democratic Front, because of the absence of transparency and democracy.
Al-Gomhorreya:
The newspaper highlighted delaying the swearing-in of the new Egyptian governors. There is an expected meeting between the chairman of SCAF, Hussein Tantawi, and the governors to discuss their plans aiming to achieve the objectives of the January 25 Revolution.
