Mubarak release sparks various viewpoints

The decision of Egypt's prosecution to release former president Hosni Mubarak has raised different reactions among politicians and citizens . Deputy Chairperson of the Egyptian Social Democratic Party Farid Zahran said: "This decision will raise anger among the general public and may hinder Morsi supporters." He added that the Muslim Brotherhood could use this decision to "convince" people who participated in June 30 Revolution to "join them" to "restore the revolution." Professor of Political Science, Mohamed Salman, blamed the public prosecutor appointed by the Muslim Brotherhood for "not condemning Mubarak" as he "directly interfered" in the case. He added that the decision could "destabilise the Egyptian street." Member of Egypt's National Salvation Front, Mohamed Abdelatif, warned that the release of Mubarak could affect the roadmap drafted by Egypt's military institution. He blamed the failure of the Muslim Brotherhood in collecting evidence against the former leader. Egyptian citizens adopted different visions about Mubarak's release. Mohamed Adel told Arab Today: "We have returned to point zero. The decision was not a surprise, rather it was expected." On the other hand, Hussein Ali expressed his delight, stating that Mubarak was "not involved"  in the cases of murder and blamed the Muslim Brotherhood in committing such violations
