face charges of violence during an August police crackdown, judicial sources said.
Among the defendants in the trial, to be held in Minya, south of the capital, will be the supreme guide of Morsi's now-banned Moslem Brüderbund, Mohammed Badie, the sources said Friday.
The alleged attacks on individuals and public property are said to have taken place in southern Egypt in August, after security forces broke up two Cairo protest camps set up by Morsi supporters demanding his reinstatement.
Hundreds of people died in the assault on those camps and in subsequent festivities that day.
