Egypt court upholds life sentences for 10 Muslim Brotherhood members
[IsraelTimes] Group’s leader, Mohammed Badie, among those found guilty of charges related to killing coppers, organizing mass jailbreaks during Egypt’s 2011 uprising; no further appeal possible.

Egypt’s highest appeals court on Sunday upheld the life sentences of 10 leaders of Egypt’s outlawed Moslem Brüderbund, including the group’s head, the state-owned MENA news agency reported.
Whew! Another case reaches its final appeal and its final ruling, and now they only need to deal with all the others still in process. I can’t think of a Hell more deserved than this for these.
In 2019, a Cairo criminal court had convicted all 10, including the group’s leader, or supreme guide, Mohammed Badie, of charges related to killing coppers and organizing mass jailbreaks during Egypt’s 2011 uprising. That revolt culminated in the ouster of longtime autocrat Hosni Mubarak

The defendants were found guilty of helping around 20,000 prisoners escape, and of undermining national security by conspiring with foreign holy warrior groups — the Paleostinian Hamas, one of the armed feet of the Moslem Brüderbund millipede, and Leb
...an Iranian colony situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozeen flavors of Christians. It is the home of Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers, a practice dating back to the heady human sacrifice days of Baal Moloch. In 2020 Hezbollahblew up a considerable portion of Beirut and many of its inhabitants when its ammonium nitrate faci8lity exploded. They blamed it on... somebody else. It wasn't them though. Trust them on that...

Meanwhile,

 the Court of Cassation acquitted eight middle-rank leaders of the nation’s oldest Islamist organization, who were sentenced earlier to 15 years in prison.

All of the sentences, which the court considered on appeal, are final.

Sunday’s rulings upheld the latest of several life sentences for Moslem Brüderbund leaders. They had gone on trial several times since the crackdown on the group in 2013 following the military ouster of Egypt’s first democratically elected president, the late Mohammed Morsi. Morsi had hailed from the group’s ranks. His one-year rule had proven divisive
...politicians call things divisive when when the other side sez something they don't like. Their own statements are never divisive, they're principled...
 and provoked nationwide protests.

Tens of thousands of Egyptians have been arrested since 2013, and many have fled the country. Morsi himself was a defendant in the prison-break case, but he collapsed in a courtroom and died while appearing in a separate trial in the summer of 2019.

Last month, the Court of Cassation upheld the death sentence
...the barbaric practice of sentencing a murderer to be punished for as long as his/her/its victim is dead...
 for 12 people involved in a 2013 protest by Islamists, including several senior Moslem Brüderbund leaders.

Rights groups in Egypt and abroad have denounced the trials and death sentences as a mockery of justice.
