Mubarak’s fourth hearing kicks off
The Egyptian court trying Hosni Mubarak over the killing of protesters convened on Wednesday to hear more testimonies after police witnesses suggested this week that neither he nor his interior minister gave orders to shoot.

Mubarak, who has been in hospital since April and attended all three court-sessions on astretcher, arriving by helicopter, state TV said. Cameras have been barred in court since the first session.

Lawyers said the court could hear up to three more witnesses on Wednesday, time permitting.

No clashes erupted outside the Police Academy, unlike previous hearings, especially the third one held on Monday when violence erupted between the victims’ families, Mubarak’s partisans and the police.

The 83-year-old Mubarak, the first Arab head of state to be tried in person since unrest erupted
across the Middle East this year, is charged with conspiring to kill protesters and "inciting" some officers to use live ammunition.
