The retrial of former Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak has been postponed, possibly for months. The 84-year-old turned up at court, only for the presiding judge to refuse to hear the case. Mubarak, along with his former interior minister Habib al-Adly and four others, face charges over the deaths of more than 800 people during the 2011 revolution. Al Jazeera's Rawya Rageh reports from Cairo.
