Court orders streets near US and UK embassies re-opened

An administrative court annulled Wednesday former Interior Minister Habib al-Adly's order to close the streets surrounding the American and British embassies in Cairo.

The court ordered Cairo's governor to remove obstacles hindering traffic on Latin America Street and other streets in Garden City.

Both embassies are surrounded by nearly 12 exits.

The court justified its verdict by saying Adly's earlier decision violated the law and the constitution.
