A Cairo prosecution on Monday ordered the release pending trial of all but one of the 12 education ministry officials who were accused of leaking secondary school exams.
The official who is still in detention was reported to have been responsible for printing the final version of the exams, known as Thanaweya Amma, after they were prepared by a technical committee.
The prosecution and the interior ministry's internet department are still investigating the leak incident that took place for the fourth year in a row for the general secondary certificate examinations.
The prosecution arrested the 12 ministry officials on 6 June for 15 days pending investigations into the leak.
They are employees in the education ministry whose job was to print the exams.
