广播听力:Egypt's Mubarak to Face Retrial over Killing of Protesters

Egypt's Supreme Court has ruled former president Hosni Mubarak will have to face a second and final retrial over the killing of protesters during the 2011 uprising against him.

The court has accepted a prosecution appeal of a lower-court ruling which acquitted Mubarak.

Head Justice Anwar Gabry says Mubarak's re-trial will take place later this year.

"The court has accepted the appeal against the verdict given to Mohamed Hosni Mubarak and set the date for November 5th to rule."

Mubarak was sentenced to life in prison in 2012 for conspiring in the deaths of 239 demonstrators.
However, an appeals court ordered a retrial in November which ultimately resulted in his acquittal.

The 86-year-old former president is still behind bars while he serves out the remainder of a 3-year prison term for graft handed to him last year.

Mubarak has been in detention since April of 2011.
