Egypt sets Mursi trial verdict for May 16
2015-02-01
Cairo -- An Egyptian court set May 16 for a verdict in the espionage trial of ousted president Mohammed Mursi, who could be sentenced to death if convicted, an official said on Saturday.
Notice they don't say which year...
Mursi faces several trials along with top leaders of his Muslim Brotherhood. In this case, he and 35 others are charged with being part of a vast conspiracy to destabilise Egypt involving foreign powers, Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran’s Revolutionary Guards.

Separately, another court is to deliver a verdict on April 21 in the trial of Mursi and 14 others for inciting the killing of protesters in clashes outside the presidential palace in December 2012.

That will be the first in any of the cases against Mursi, who also faces a third trial for breaking out of jail during the 2011 uprising that toppled president Hosni Mubarak.
