A Cairo Court has asked the Grand Cleric to reconsider a death sentence proposed for the leader of the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood and 13 associates for murder and violence for a second time. Mohamed Badie, the Brotherhoods general guid and the other defendants were sentenced on June 19, but Egyptian law requires any capital sentence to be referred to the Grand Mufti , Egypts highest Islamic legal official, for an opinion before any execution can take place. The Muftis reports are not normally made public, but one of the three judges in the case said the Mufti had stated that the investigations and evidence were not enough to carry out the death sentence.
