\n<\/span><\/p>\nFormer Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak has been taken to hospital in Sharm el-Sheikh, security sources say.<\/p>\n
“Mubarak was admitted to the Sharm el-Sheikh International Hospital this afternoon, amid a very heavy security presence in the town,” a security source told AFP news agency.<\/p>\n
Media reports say the health minister is to give a statement on the matter.<\/p>\n
Mr Mubarak, 82, stood down on 11 February following an 18-day popular uprising against his rule.<\/p>\n
He had been reported to be in bad health but aides had denied this.<\/p>\n
“There is a state of confusion inside the hospital and only patients are allowed in,” Ashraf Swaylam, a news reporter for the state-run station Nile TV, said on air.<\/p>\n
Another TV report suggested Mr Mubarak was admitted to the VIP wing and the hospital was accepting no patients except for emergency cases.<\/p>\n
On Sunday, Mr Mubarak was summoned by the state prosecutor for questioning over alleged corruption and killings of protesters. <\/p>\n
He has been banned from leaving the country, along with his sons and their wives, and the family’s assets have been frozen.<\/p>\n
Correspondents say he has been keeping a low profile in Sharm el-Sheikh, a Red Sea resort, after fleeing to his holiday villa there when he was overthrown.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n
