It said that the toll was preliminary and would most likely increase because officials were still gathering data across the country. Over 120 injured people still remain in hospital.

At least 32 police personnel were killed and over 1,000 wounded during the uprisings, said the interior ministry.

Mubarak stepped down Feb 11 after 18 days of protests.
