Egypt candidate Suleiman warns of religious state
None
Hosni Mubarak's former vice president says he is running for president to prevent Islamists from turning Egypt into a "religious state."
Omar Suleiman, who was also Mubarak's long-serving intelligence chief, says the decision by the Muslim Brotherhood to field a presidential candidate"horrified" Egyptians. The Brotherhood, which has emerged as Egypt's most powerful political bloc after last year's uprising, reversed an earlier decision not to field a candidate. (AP)
