Mohamed Mursi Death Sentence

United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon is "deeply concerned" that deposed Egyptian President Mohamed Mursi and more than 90 other people were sentenced to death today over a mass jail break during the country's 2011 uprising.

Death sentences against Egypt's deposed President Mohamed Mursi and leaders of the Muslim Brotherhood are a "massacre of law and basic rights", Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan said today.

An Egyptian court sentenced former Islamist President Mohamed Mursi to death today in a case related to a 2011 mass jail break.

The United States believes the death sentence for former Egyptian President Mohamed Mursi is "unjust and undermines confidence in the rule of law," the State Department said on Monday.

Egypt executed today an Islamist accused of murder during clashes in mid-2013, the first death sentence implemented against a supporter of the banned Muslim Brotherhood under President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, the interior ministry said.

An Egyptian court ordered a retrial for 37 Muslim Brotherhood members sentenced to death and 115 others sentenced to life in a mass trial last year, judicial sources said on Saturday.

The European Union's foreign policy chief said on Tuesday Egypt's sentencing of 683 people to death breached international law and urged Cairo authorities to ensure defendants' rights to a fair and timely trial.
