Egypt arrests son of ousted president Morsi
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleAn Egyptian official says security forces have arrested the son of ousted Islamist president Mohammed Morsi.
The official says that Osama Morsi was wanted by authorities, without providing further details. The state-run news website Al-Ahram reports the arrest, saying Osama is accused of inciting violence.
Morsi, Egypt’s first freely elected president, was overthrown by the military in 2013. He faces a raft of charges in at least four separate cases and has received death sentences from lower courts. He has not received family visits or had any access to lawyers for three years.
