The brother of the Egyptian soldier who assassinated President Anwar Sadat was released from prison, officials in Egypt said. Egypt said Mohamed Islambouli was released pending trial Sunday by an Egyptian military court because of health problems, Ahram Online reported Monday. He was seriously injured when a prison transport vehicle crashed. Islambouli, the brother of Sadat's assassin Khalid Islambouli, fled Egypt in 1985 and eventually settled in Iran. He was one of several Islamists sentenced in absentia who have returned from exile since the ouster of Mubarak last year, Ahram Online said. Islambouli was sentenced to death in Egypt in 1992 on terrorism charges related to the return of Egyptian Islamists from Afghanistan. In 1999, he was convicted on charges related to the massacre of 58 foreign tourists and four Egyptians in Luxor, Egypt.
