Egypt's ElBaradei to face trial in September

Egyptian Nobel Peace Prize winner Mohammed ElBaradei is to face trial on September 19 over his resignation as vice president after a deadly crackdown on the Muslim Brotherhood, state-run newspaper Al-Ahram reported online on Tuesday, dpa reported.

The case against him was brought by the head of criminal law in Helwan University, who argues that ElBaradei was appointed vice president as a representative of the opposition and was obliged to refer his resignation to them.

ElBaradei left Cairo for Vienna on Sunday, according to Al-Ahram.
