A court in
Egypt on Monday jailed Muslim
Brotherhood chief Mohamed Badie to
life in prison for inciting clashes that killed six people, in his
third such sentence. On Monday, the Cairo court jailed him and 14 other Islamist leaders including the Brotherhood's Essam al-Erian and Mohamed al-Beltagy to
life for inciting deadly clashes in July 2013 in a western neighbourhood of the capital. The violence between Islamist supporters of ousted president Mohamed Morsi and security forces left six people dead and several wounded. After the army ousted Morsi in July last year,
Egypt was rocked by clashes between his supporters and security forces, with the authorities accusing
Brotherhood leaders of calling for "violent protests" demanding his reinstatement.
