CAIRO (Reuters) - Hosni Mubarak, who ruled Egypt with an iron fist for 30 years before he was ousted, has asked to vote in a constitutional referendum, his lawyer told Reuters on Tuesday.

Mubarak, who is facing a retrial for his role in the killing of protesters during the 2011 uprising that unseated him, was released from prison in August and is at a Cairo military hospital.
