CAIRO- - An Egyptian court on Saturday sought the death sentence for former President Mohamed Mursi and 105 other members of the Muslim Brotherhood in connection with a mass jail break in 2011.
The cases, like any capital sentence, will be referred to Egypt's top religious authority, the Grand Mufti, for any opinion before any executions can take place.
