Egyptian state media reports that the trial of ousted President Morsi on charges of inciting violence will start on November 4.
Morsi will stand trial with 14 other defendants over the killings of protesters outside his presidential palace in December 2012, almost six months before his ouster in a military coup.
At least 10 people were killed in the clashes on December 5 between the Islamist’s loyalists and his opponents after Mosi passed a temporary decree placing his decisions beyond judicial review.
Morsi’s Muslim Brotherhood claimed that most of those killed were Islamists. The clashes broke out after Brotherhood supporters dispersed a sit-in outside the palace by Morsi’s secular leaning opponents.
Morsi’s co-defendants will include several of his aides and Brotherhood leaders.
The military has detained Morsi in a secret location since his overthrow on July 3. His supporters and opponents of military rule have demonstrated across the country since.
Hundreds of people have died in clashes with security forces.
