Cairo court has given Saturday the Egyptian former Muslim Brotherhood president Mohamed Morsi a death penalty for espionage and jailbreak.
Egyptian judge has referred Saturday the sentencing to Egypt’s Grand Mufti, the country’s most senior religious authority, a step towards the death penalty.
The country’s first freely elected president was ousted by then army chief and now President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi in July 2013 following mass street protests demanding the Islamist’s resignation after just a year in power.
