Former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak waves to his supporters inside a cage in a courtroom at the police academy in Cairo, in this file picture taken April 13, 2013. Mubarak, who was overthrown in an uprising in 2011, will be released from jail in the next 48 hours after a prosecutor cleared him in a corruption case, his lawyer Fareed El-Deeb told Reuters on August 19, 2013.

The ex-president's court appearances are far from over as he sets to be retried over mass killings.
Egypt's high court said on Thursday former president Hosni Mubarak would be retried in the case of the 2011 killing of protesters.
The judge accepted the public prosecution's appeal against an earlier court ruling that dropped the case against Mubarak.
The judge said the retrial would begin on November 5.
