Egyptian TV: Prosecutor requests to freeze Mubarak's assets

State TV says Egypt's top prosecutor has requested the freezing of the assets of ousted president Hosni Mubarak and his family.

In addition to the TV announcement, aimed at freezing domestic holdings, the prosecutor requested the Foreign Minister to ask other nations to freeze any assets abroad, security officials say. The freeze applies to Mubarak, his wife, his two sons and two daughters-in-law, they say. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren't authorized to talk to the press. (AP)
