Report: Egypt's former prime minister arrested
None
Egyptian state television is reporting that the country's former prime minister – who served under the nation's toppled Islamist president – has been arrested to serve a one-year prison sentence.
The broadcaster reported Hesham Kandil's arrest on Tuesday. The case goes back to 2011 when a court ruled in favor of reversing deals struck by ousted autocrat Hosni Mubarak when his government sold a textile company to a Saudi investor. (AP)
