The General Court of the EU on Wednesday canceled a decision freezing the funds of late President Hosni Mubarak and his family. The court did not disclose on its website the amount of funds that will be removed from the freeze. The funds will be available to the Mubarak family after the expiry of the 70-day period for appealing the court’s decision. In 2021 the EU announced the abolition of sanctions imposed in 2011 on nine Egyptians: including the family of former President Hosni Mubarak, on suspicion of embezzling state funds. Mubarak served as the fourth president of Egypt for thirty years.
