Cairo (ANTARA News) - Egypt`s former president Hosni Mubarak has been moved back to the prison over the prosecution`s order to his transfer, official MENA news agency reported Monday.

The general prosecutor, Abdel Maguid Mahmoud, decided earlier Monday to transfer Mubarak to Tora prison`s hospital after his health condition improved.

MENA quoted official sources in the prison as saying that Mubarak stays in Torah`s hospital under the supervision of a medical team.

The general prosecution spokesman Adel al-Saeed noted that the general prosecutor has ordered on July 4 to form a medical committee to conduct health checks for Mubarak to prove the possibility of moving him to the hospital in Tora prison in southern Cairo.

The committee confirmed that Mubarak`s condition is now "stable in general" after the committee conducted checks and researches for him, which means there`s no need for him to stay in a military hospital in Cairo`s Maadi district, close to the Tora Prison.

The 84-year-old man, jailed on June 2, was moved from prison to Maadi`s military hospital on June 19 after his health sharply deteriorated.
