Mubarak pleads 'not guilty' at Cairo trial - Middle East - Al Jazeera English: "Hosni Mubarak, Egypt's ousted president, has denied charges of corruption and complicity in the killing of protesters at the start of his historic trial in Cairo.
At his first court appearance on Wednesday, Mubarak spoke from a hospital stretcher where he lay inside a cage for defendants.
'I categorically deny all the charges,' Mubarak said.
The proceedings, in a temporary court at the Police Academy in Cairo, was shown live on state television.
Ahmed Refaat, the presiding judge, later adjourned the trial, announcing that it would resume on August 15.
