Egypt's highest court: Mohammed Morsi death sentence overturned

Egypt's highest court has overturned a death sentence against ousted Islamist President Mohammed Morsi.
Morsi had been condemned to death for his part in a mass prison break during the 2011 revolution.


He was elected president in 2012, but removed by the military a year later after street protests against his rule.

Morsi has separately been sentenced to life in prison for terrorism offences, and still faces trial on other charges.
