[AAWSAT] Egypt's prosecutor general, Nabil Sadeq, referred 278 suspected Moslem Brüderbund members to military trial Sunday on "terrorism" charges. Of the 278 people referred for trial, 141 are already in detention. The suspects are facing charges including joining Brotherhood-linked Death Eater groups Lewaa al-Thawra ![]() and Hasam. They are also accused of carrying out 12 "terrorist operations" including targeting and killing coppers and personnel. Sunday's announcement comes after 555 people were referred to military trial last week, accused of belonging to a branch of ISIS in the Sinai Peninsula. |
