CAIRO—A
Cairo court sentenced ousted President Mohamed Morsi to death on
Saturday on charges of breaking out of prison during Egypt’s uprising
four years ago.
The judge said he was referring the sentences to Egypt’s mufti, a religious official who must approve capital punishment in the country.
The verdict was aired on state television Saturday morning. Morsi appeared in the courtroom with 27 other defendants charged in two cases against the toppled Islamist leader and his supporters.
