Egyptian court postpones Morsi's trial to Dec. 3
(MENAFN- The Peninsula) CAIRO: An Egyptian court ruled Monday that the trial of former President Mohamed Morsi, who was ousted and imprisoned following a military coup in 2013, was postponed to conduct a medical examination.
The court postponed the hearing of Morsi and a number of other defendants who were accused of 'espionage to Dec. 3.
The court also ordered the medical examination to be carried out at Morsi's expense.
Morsi is currently serving a 20-year jail term for 'killing protesters.
The former president is also standing trial on several charges ranging from a mass jailbreak to espionage.
Morsi, along with all of his co-defendants, insists that the charges are politically motivated.
Since Morsi's overthrow, Egyptian authorities launched a relentless crackdown on dissent, killing hundreds of Morsi supporters and detaining thousands.
