Egypt Morsi spy case on hold, lawyers want new judges

http - February 27th, 2014

A court in Egypt on Thursday suspended the espionage trial of deposed Islamist president Mohamed Morsi after defence lawyers requested that the judges in the case withdraw. The case, one of three already opened against Morsi, comes amid a relentless government crackdown targeting him and his Muslim Brotherhood movement since the army removed him last July. Prosecutors accuse Morsi and 35 others
