The Minya criminal court postponed the trial of 28 defendants of the Muslim Brotherhood in two cases to May.

In the first case, 17 defendants, including the group’s deputy supreme guide Mahmoud Ezzat, are facing charges of planning to topple the regime and possessing leaflets inciting violence and riots. The trial was delayed to May 4.

The other 11 defendants are accused of staging protests, blocking roads and rioting. The court adjourned their trial to May 5 to listen the prosecution witnesses.
