A court in Egypt has ordered a retrial for ex-President Hosni Mubarak after accepting an appeal against his life sentence over the deaths of protesters.
Mubarak, 84, was overthrown in 2011 after mass street protests in the capital Cairo and other cities, and jailed in June.
His former Interior Minister, Habib al-Adly, was also granted a retrial.
The two men are likely to remain in custody, however, because of separate investigations into their affairs.
Mubarak led Egypt for almost 30 years, surviving six assassination attempts, before the revolt against his rule.
Mohammed Morsi of the Muslim Brotherhood was elected president in June.
'We love you'Judge Ahmed Ali Abdel Rahman announced: "The court has ruled to accept the appeal filed by the defendants... and orders a retrial."
The ruling was met with cries of "Long live justice!" by Mubarak supporters who held up his picture and hugged each other in the courtroom while dozens more outside shouted "We love you, president!", AFP news agency reports.
Since Mubarak was jailed, there have been frequent reports about his ill-health.
On Saturday, the former leader was reportedly questioned over gifts worth millions of Egyptian pounds which he allegedly received from the country's flagship state newspaper, Al-Ahram.
He was ordered detained for 15 days pending the investigation, a judicial source told AFP.
