From a BBC article on the Constitution:
“Article 85 The President must cease work immediately after a charge [treason or criminal offence] is issued against him, at which point the vice-president or (if there is none) the prime minister assumes the presidency temporarily, in accordance with the restrictions stipulated in the second clause of Article 82 until a decision is reached on the charge.“
Why not charge Mubarak with treason and/or a criminal offence?
Further, why not subsequently charge Suleiman and every belligerent member of the regime with treason and/or a criminal offence as well until such a time as a pro-regime change person takes over as President?
This seems like a simple solution, perhaps too simple, but based on the information I have, I cannot see why this is not possible, nor, why it has not been done thus far.
Comments extremely welcome.
