An Egyptian court sentenced former president Mohammed Morsi to 20 years in prison on Tuesday in connection with the deaths of protesters during demonstrations against his rule in 2012. Morsi also faces charges in two other trials.

Morsi supporters attacked opposition protesters outside the presidential palace in December 2012, sparking clashes that killed at least 10 people.

Judge Ahmed Youssef dropped the murder charges against Morsi and said the sentence was instead linked to the “show of force” against protesters and unlawful detentions.

The Cairo Criminal Court issued the verdict as Morsi and other defendants in the case – mostly other Muslim Brotherhood leaders – stood in a soundproof glass cage in a makeshift courtroom at Egypt’s national police academy.

The country’s first freely elected president, Morsi took power after the 2011 overthrow of Hosni Mubarak. Morsi himself was ousted by the army in 2013 and put on trial as the new regime of Abdel Fattah al-Sisi launched a relentless crackdown on the moderate Islamist Muslim Brotherhood.

Hundreds of Brotherhood members have since been sentenced to death and thousands more jailed.

The Muslim Brotherhood issued a statement ahead of the verdict on Tuesday denouncing the judiciary – calling it a tool of repression – and calling for protests.

“The coup commander (Sisi) is exploiting the judiciary as a weapon in the battle against popular will and the democratic and revolutionary legitimacy represented by President Mohamed Morsi,” the statement said.

The Brotherhood called for “non-stop revolutionary marches and demonstrations” starting Tuesday in support of Morsi and demanding his reinstatement.

The Muslim Brotherhood, now blacklisted by Egypt as a “terrorist organisation”, has previously failed to mobilise large numbers for its rallies because of persistent fears amid a continuing crackdown.

Morsi also faces the possible death penalty in connection with two other trials, including one in which he is accused of leaking state secrets to Iran’s Revolutionary Guards. He is also accused of escaping from prison during the widespread protests that eventually ousted Mubarak.

I'm quiet happy this man and his party are shut down and labelled terrorist...even though he was democratically elected what the party stood for was against the political stability in the Middle east...he would ve probably waged war against Israel, Kill or drive away all the Christians and other religions and finance terrorist

Clearly you have never been to Egypt.

Egypt is suffering economically and has been for several years.

Without US aid they would not be able to pay their civil servants.

Tribalism will not allow Nigeria,just mention Tinubu or Fashola's names as thieves and see the kind of attack you will receive from a section of Nigeria.Call Peter Obi or Sullivan Chime's names and see.Even Chimaroke has supporters.Call Mama p or Wike to answer for the killings in Rivers and you will be roasted alive.Our greatest problem after corruption is tribalism

Waiting for the day the evil monarchy in Saudi Arabia will face a fate like this.

Governments that rise to power based on religious sentiments should be discouraged and forcefully overthrown where possible.

If Buhari dare try any funny Islamic agenda in this country he will be hanged.

Feel free to quote me.

You are simply ignorant. Morsi was elected by a multireligious electorate only for him and his muslim brotherhood to start trying to impose radical islam on a multireligious country, as well as taking away the civil rights of the people. The multireligious electorate agitated against him and the military stepped in, which finally culminated in the former army general taking over as newly elected president. Today, the muslim brotherhood has been banned as well as their members facing prosecution in court with sentences ranging from death sentences to lengthy prison terms.

This is rather a lesson for Buhari and his APC party who have been accused of harboring an islamic agenda, to steer clear of any attempt to islamize a multiethnic and multireligious country like nigeria, irrespective of what the agenda of their arab sponsors are. Nigeria will be too small for them, should they attempt any of such. We believe that they are smarter than allowing themselves to be used by foreign countries with sinister motives, aimed at destroying the country. Morsi is a perfect lesson for any would-be islamists.

1. it was clearly a joke , maybe until May 29 . The point I was trying to make was that an ex-president is being dealt with for past crimes - imposing Islamic laws ,etc . We all know Jonathan's hands are not clean either . When the truth about the corrupt practices and missing funds he has been accused of being involved with is exposed , i'll surely draw your attention to it.

2 Buhari has dismissed claims of imposing Islamic laws or Islamizing this country .Even looking at it - he has a christian vice president
