CAIRO: Egypt’s public prosecutor said that several ministers and officials, including former interior minister Habib al-Adly, have been banned from travel and their accounts frozen pending investigation. They are “banned from travelling abroad while their bank accounts have been frozen until security is reinstated, and until investigative authorities conduct probes to establish who was criminally and administratively responsible for all those events,” Abdel Meguid Mahmud said, quoted by the MENA news agency. Those being investigated include Adly, steel magnate and senior member of the ruling party Ahmed Ezz, former tourism minister Zoheir Garranah and fomer housing minister Ahmed Al Maghrabi.
