EGYPT: unrest in Arab World

Authorities order the detention of Suzanne Mubarak, wife of deposed President Hosni Mubarak, and a doctor says she passed out on hearing the news. The state-owned MENA news agency says the detention order was issued a day after the government said Hosni Mubarak and his wife were questioned over suspicions they illegally amassed vast wealth. MENA says prosecutors ordered Mrs. Mubarak, who is 70, detained for 15 days pending further investigation. She was interrogated at the hospital in Sharm el-Sheikh where her 83-year old husband has been held, and a security official said she will remain in the hospital for the time being.
