MB rejects fatwas against 24 August protesters

The Muslim Brotherhood rejects fatwas that call for killing demonstrators participating in the planned 24 August protests, said MB lawyer Abdel Moneim Abdel Maqsoud on Wednesday.

 “Peaceful demonstration is a guaranteed right to all,” he said, “and vandalism will be dealt with by the authorities.”

Abdel Maqsoud also denied media reports alleging that the Brotherhood is developing a plan to face the protests. “The group is prepared to defend its offices in legal ways,” he said.
