Ailing Mubarak appears in courtroom

The first session of the historic trial against the ousted president of Egypt on charges of corruption and ordering the killing of protesters began on Wednesday morning in Cairo. The ailing, 83-year-old Hosni Mubarak was laid on a hospital bed inside a cage of mesh and iron bars.

The scene, shown live on Egypt?s state TV, was the first images of the deposed leader since Feb. 10, the day before his fall when he gave a defiant speech refusing to resign.
