Saudi’s offered $10b for Mubarak’s release: Wikileaks

 

Saudi Arabia offered $10 billion for the release of deposed Egypt president Hosni Mubarak, whistle-blower website Wikileaks has revealed in its documents released last week.

The deposed autocrat, who has been a long-time Saudi ally, is imprisoned in Egypt and facing trials in courts after the revolution in Egypt.

Out of the several documents released by Wikileaks, some suggest that one leader in Brotherhood had said the group could ensure Mubarak would not go to prison in exchange of $10 billion. (Tribune)
