Islamic Shura Council of S. CA Condemns the Egyptian Military Junta
(Anaheim, April 29, 2014): The Islamic Shura Council of Southern California is appalled by the injustice imposed by the Egyptian miltiary junta for sentencing 683 people to death, allegedly for attacking a police station. Earlier in March, the Egyptian judiciary had also condemned 529 people to death, 492 of whom were later commuted to life term. “Both of these sentences defy reason and confirms brazen and indiscriminate injustice by the Egyptian regime,” said Dr. Muzammil Siddiqi, Chairman of the Shura Council.
