An Egyptian court sentenced 188 people to death, for involvement in the deaths of 11 policemen after security forces forcefully cleared two protest camps outside the ousted President Mohammed Morsi’s parliament.
The attacks happened after security forces killed over 100 protesters during the clearance of the streets in Cairo.
The sentence requires final affirmation from Egypt’s top religious authority, the Grand Mufti. A final verdict will be reached by January 27, reports the Associated Press.
