CAIRO, July 22 (Aswat Masriya) An Egyptian court released businessman Ahmed Ezz on a bail of 50 million Egyptian pounds from charges of graft, his lawyer said. 

The Mubarak-era tycoon is still imprisoned for two other cases, which are money laundering and steel monopoly. 

Ezz was arrested in 2011 following the January uprising against toppled autocrat Hosni Mubarak.
