Judges withdraw from trial of Brotherhood figures
2013-10-30
[Al Ahram] The judges presiding in an ongoing trial of Moslem Brüderbund spiritual leader Mohammed Badie and co-defendants on charges of incitement of murder have withdrawn from the case. The three judges from the South Cairo Criminal Court cited a conflict of interest as their reason for stepping down, without giving further details.
"Please don't hurt us!"
Supreme Guide Mohammed Badie and his deputies Khairat El-Shater and Rashad Bayoumi are accused of inciting the murder of protesters at the Brotherhood guidance office headquarters in Cairo during festivities which took place on 30 June.

Nine protesters were killed and other 91 protesters were maimed when fights broke out after anti-Brotherhood protesters stormed the building.

The South Cairo prosecution has referred six defendants to the criminal court for trial on the charges. The defendents include Mostafa Abdel-Azim, Mohammed Abdel-Azim and Atef Abdel-Galil.
