CAIRO, Jan 21 (Aswat Masriya)  - The Mansoura police station is set to release on Saturday member of 6th of April movement Mohamed Adel after finalising the legal procedures, lawyer Karim Ezzat told Aswat Masriya.

According to Ezzat, authorities said that there are no pending cases involving Adel.

An Egyptian court released co-founder of the 6th April movement earlier in January, after completing his jail term.

In December 2013, Maher, Adel along with Ahmed Douma were sentenced to three years and were fined EGP50,000 for attacking a Central Security conscript by the Abdeen Court and protesting without permit in the same year.

The political movement was created on Facebook in 2008 in solidarity with a planned textile workers' strike in the industrial city of Mahallah in the Nile Delta. The strike, which was infiltrated by plainclothes policemen who intimidated the workers, never took place.

The April 6 movement was one of the main actors in the January 2011 Uprising, which resulted in the ouster of former president Hosni Mubarak after he ruled the country for almost 30 years.
