Egypt state media: Mubarak has no assets abroad

CAIRO — Egypt's official media say ousted leader Hosni Mubarak has submitted a declaration of his wealth to authorities as he has every year since taking office in 1981.
State TV and the official news agency MENA quoted Mubarak's "legal representative" as denying reports in local and foreign media about the size of the former president's wealth, branding them as malicious rumors designed to stain his legacy.
The representative was not named and details of Mubarak's declaration, including whether it was made before or after his ouster, were not given. However, the representative said Mubarak did not have any assets or property abroad.
Mubarak, who ruled for nearly 30 years, was forced out in an 18-day uprising against his authoritarian regime.
