Egyptian court sentences Muslim Brotherhood leader to life in prison
|
[PRESSTV] A court in Egypt has sentenced the chairman of the outlawed Moslem Brüderbund and other big shots of the movement to life in prison over charges of alleged incitement to murder and violence during protest rallies five years ago.
The Brotherhood’s Supreme Guide Mohammed Badie received life sentence from the Giza Criminal Court on Sunday, along with some other top leaders of the movement, including Mohammed el-Beltagy, Safwat Hegazy, Essam el-Erian and al-Husseini Antar.
The rulings are the latest among several trials and retrials against Badie and other big shots of the Brotherhood that ruled the African country before the military, led by incumbent President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, ousted the first democratically-elected president, Mohammed Morsi, following mass protests in 2013.
The court on Sunday also sentenced Bassem Ouda, the former supply minister under Morsi's rule, to 15 years in jail. It also sentenced the movement’s prominent figures Hisham Kamel, Gamal Fathi, and Ahmed Dahi to 10 years in prison over charges of alleged incitement to commit violent acts in the protests.
