This is a huge victory for the Tahrir Square revolution -- and for justice. Former interior minister Habib al-Adly was convicted of corruption for skimming more than $1 million. He still faces a separate trial over the deaths of hundreds of anti-Mubarak demonstrators.
Dozens of other bigshots from the Mubarak regime are also under arrest or investigation, so this conviction and 12-year sentence sends a very welcome signal.
