Iran Press/Africa: Egypt’s first democratically elected president and the former leader of the Muslim Brotherhood governed the country between June 2012 and July 2013, Egyptian Al-Ahram Gate reported.
In the previous year, a panel of UK legislators and attorneys asserted that Morsi, who has diabetes and liver disease, is likely to face “premature death” in prison, due to low poor prison conditions and inhumane treatment.
The crackdown on the former Egyptian ruler and his political party, the Muslim Brotherhood, sparked widespread outrage around the world as rights campaigners and governments criticize the Abdel Fattah al-Sisi administration for collectively imprisoning the party's members.
Rights groups say the army’s crackdown on the Brotherhood and its supporters resulted in deaths of over 1,400 people. About 22,000 others have been arrested, including more than 200 people who have been sentenced to death in mass trials.
