Egypt’s highest appeal court has overturned a life sentence handed down to ousted President Mohammed Morsi.
The Court of Cassation ordered that the 65-year-old be retried for allegedly conspiring to commit terrorist acts with foreign organisations.
Last week, the court overturned a death sentence handed to Morsi in a separate case revolving around a mass prison break during the 2011 revolution.
But he is still serving lengthy sentences related to two other cases.
Morsi was elected president in 2012 but was removed by the military a year later after protests against his rule.
