Egypt militant sentenced to death
(MENAFN- Gulf Times) An Egyptian court yesterday sentenced a leading Islamist militant to death by hanging after convicting him of killing a policeman.
The Criminal Court in Cairo said it had "convincing" evidence that Adel Habara had deliberately killed the policeman by shooting at him in the Nile Delta province of Sharqia in 2012.
The ruling can be appealed.
The verdict is the third to be handed down against Habara.
Last month, another court sentenced Habara and six other militants to death in a retrial on charges of murdering 25 policemen in an attack in Egypt's restive Sinai Peninsula in 2013.
In September, Habara was sentenced to death on charges of setting up an extremist group linked to the Islamic State militant group.
Those two verdicts can also be appealed.
