The comment comes as former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak gets life behind bars for murders committed during the country’s historic revolution in February 2011.

In a final verdict hearing in a Cairo court on Saturday, the ex-dictator as well as former Interior Minister Habib al-Adli was sentenced to life imprisonment for the killing of around 900 protesters during the country’s popular uprising.

Mubarak also faced separate charges of corruption along with his sons Alaa and Gamal. But the charges were dropped. The court dropped charges against six other security officials, who were brought to trial for the killing of protesters.

The verdict sparked fierce clashes between families of the victims and security officials inside the court. Angry spectators called the court illegitimate and demanded that Mubarak be executed.

Press TV has conducted an interview with political commentator, Kamel Wazni, to further discuss the issue.

Press TV: Mr. Wazni give us your thoughts on the final verdict in the Hosni Mubarak trial?

Wazni: The regime of Hosni Mubarak is done and the assistant of the imperial militants they are, actually according to the people they’ve committed a crime against the people of Egypt obviously by giving the go-ahead and exonerating them from any crime this is an injustice which has been done by this court.

And I think this will give more voices to the people in Egypt and throughout the country they will continue their struggle for freedom because freedom will happen where you have a clean system.

A clean system at the government level, at the social level and at every level and the presidential election that will take place in the coming weeks this will give it more push for the people to say their struggle hasn’t still been finished and their fight for a country where the law, true law and justice will prevail. They still have time to work on it.

Obviously this verdict it does not serve justice and it does not serve the people who were killed defending the freedom of Egypt.

Press TV: Mr. Wazni, let’s also talk about the broader effects of this verdict and how it will affect the upcoming runoff for the presidential elections.

Wazni: I think this will work on behalf of the nominee Mohamed Morsi because I think this has given a push and unified the people around him because they think Ahmed Shafiq is the continuation of the government of Hosni Mubarak and probably somebody who will come to power who will have a mandate from the people and who can make a difference in the future of Egypt.

I think if anything this would be a positive push for the Islamists and for those people who actually do not want the regime of Hosni Mubarak to come back and hold on to power.

I think this will resonate very well with the Egyptian people and you will not be surprised if you see a lot of demonstrations as it happened in the court and this will have a chance to spread throughout Egypt and you will see the ballot when the election comes will have more people going to vote and register their true sentiment probably voting for Morsi and Morsi hopefully will unify the country and bring a new justice that will be fair and equitable to handle all the crime that has been committed against the Egyptian people.

Press TV: Mr. Wazni, I’d like to know how you felt about the way the trial and the judicial proceedings were carried out. Judge Ahmad Rafat obviously insisted that the 10 month trial had been a fair one. Do you see it in that light?

Wazni: I don’t think it’s a fair one and you know it for the person that committed a crime, he can justify it as he sees it but I think the people have different opinions and different voices about what has taken place. If anything, this has… actually injustice has been done to Egypt and to the people who put their lives to carry the agenda of changing Egypt.

I think on the one hand it’s going to be a great day for Egypt because they put Hosni Mubarak to jail forever but on the other hand I think justice hasn’t been served and probably if there is a new president in Egypt some of these cases will be retried under a different jurisdiction and probably will have a different verdict.

Press TV: Mr. Wazni, You just mentioned this could be a historic day for Egyptians as they’re putting Hosni Mubarak away in prison forever but one of the guests we spoke to, one of the protestors outside the courtroom spoke in a different manner, that guest specifically said that the outcome of this trial would mean that Hosni Mubarak would serve the rest of his sentence in either a 5 star hotel or hospital. How do you perceive those comments?

Wazni: I think we have to look at it: he was convicted by a court, by an Egyptian court. He is a criminal, he committed crimes and that’s enough [of a] sentence for a dictator who ruled Egypt for a very long time. We have to be fair with that verdict because that verdict I thought it was equitable and I think even if he serves in a 5 star hotel but in the end he will die and he will serve his time as a convicted criminal… and somebody who killed his own people.

And I think in that sense this is a historical day and when the new elections take place probably the location and modification will change but we have to look at the positive side, the positive side of the equation: he was convicted in an Egyptian court that he killed his own people. He is a criminal, he is in jail and that cannot be denied.
