11.32 Surreal moment as a lawyer calls out that Mubarak died in 2004, and that this court appearance is a conspiracy on the part of America and Israel. He is calling for a DNA test to prove that it's the real Mubarak and not a lookalike.During Ramadan, Arab networks often air sensational TV series. I don' t think that this trial will have any ratings competition in Egypt.
Various lawyers ranting at the judge, who wearily asks one: "What does what you're saying have to do with the trial?"
...A little more detail on the odd conspiracy-theory stuff about Mubarak being a lookalike who took over when the real one died in 2004:
Conspiracy lawyer is named Hamed Siddik, and he filed this very case in 2004 ... that Mubarak died and this is an imposter.
