CRI听力:Court to Issue Verdict on Egypt's First Elected Leader
An Egyptian court is expected to issue a verdict in a case involving the country's first elected leader soon.
63-year-old Mohamed Morsi was ousted by the military in 2013 following mass protests against him.
His case is part of a crackdown on members of the Muslim Brotherhood, which is now banned and listed as a terrorist organization by the Egyptian government.
President Abdel Fattah al Sisi, formerly Egypt’s Defense Minister, says stability is needed to revive the shattered economy.
"Holding early presidential elections and appointing the head of the constitutional court is necessary during the transitional period."
Morsi faces charges of inciting violence relating to the deaths of about a dozen people in clashes outside the presidential palace in December 2012 after he enraged his opponents with a decree expanding his powers.
