Air defence stadium

Cairo Criminal Court delayed on Monday the trial of 16 members of terrorist Muslim Brotherhood (MB) and Ultras White Knights to June 13.

They face charges of violence and rioting that took place during the air defense stadium incidents where a football match between Zamalek and ENPPI occurred, leaving 22 members of Ultras Zamalek dead.

The delay aims to listen to the prosecution witnesses and view videos concerning the case.

Defendants affiliated to the MB confessed that they have plotted, funded and participated in the crimes to cause a state of chaos in order to fail the Egyptian Economic Development Conference.

While the defendants affiliated to Ultras Zamalek said that they have received money from MB leaders to practice violence during the match.
