Egypt's official gazette published on Sunday a ruling by a Cairo court placing the Moslem Brüderbund on the list of terrorist entities for a five-year period, as well as placing the group's acting Supreme Guide Mahmoud Ezzat on the terrorist lists for the same timeframe.
On 12 January, a Southern Cairo criminal court placed the banned group on the terrorist list for five years, starting the date of decision.

It could happen — five years from now the horse might learn to sing. | The court also put 16 names on the terror list for five years, including Mahmoud Ezzat, who was arrested in August 2020, and former presidential candidate and ex-Brotherhood member Abdel-Moneim Abul-Fotouh, who was arrested in February 2018.
The court said the decision was issued as per law no.8/2015, known as the law regulating lists of terrorist entities and terrorists.
