Egypt opposition files court case to reveal budget

Several Egyptian opposition parties and civil society groups filed a lawsuit on Saturday to try to force the government to disclose the upcoming fiscal year's planned budget for the country where the economy has waned amid continued unrest.

 

The lawsuit is the latest move by groups complaining that President Mohammed Morsi's government has not been transparent about economic measures they say could hurt Egypt's poor. Egypt's economy has been hard hit by two years of turmoil following the ouster of longtime autocratic President Hosni Mubarak. (AP)
