埃及一家法院星期二宣布维持对前总统穆尔西的死刑判决。穆尔西被控参与2011年大规模越狱事件. 他上个月被判死刑,同时被判刑的还有其他一百人。

这家法院星期二还对穆尔西涉嫌的另一个案件作出判决。穆尔西因被控与巴勒斯坦极端组织哈马斯等外国组织合谋而被判处终身监禁。

前埃及最高军事将领、现任总统塞西2013年领导推翻穆尔西以来,大力镇压被取缔的穆斯林兄弟会,政府对穆尔西和穆兄会领袖提出多项指控。

法院星期二还宣布维持对巴迪等穆兄会领导人的判决。巴迪被判处死刑,其他领导人被判处无期徒刑。

被告可以对判决提出上诉。

An Egyptian court upheld a death sentence Tuesday for former President Mohamed Morsi in connection with a 2011 mass prison break. He was originally sentenced last month along with 100 others.

The same court also sentenced Mr. Morsi to life in prison on Tuesday in a separate case involving charges of conspiring with foreign groups, including the Palestinian militant group Hamas.

Since his 2013 ouster led by then-army chief and current President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi, the Egyptian government has brought multiple charges against Mr. Morsi and the leaders of his banned Muslim Brotherhood amid a massive crackdown against the group.

Tuesday's rulings also included a death sentence for Brotherhood leader Mohamed Badie and life in prison for other leaders.

The sentences can be appealed.
