Port Said Criminal Court decided on Sunday to adjourn the retrial of the defendants in the "Port Said stadium massacre" case till tomorrow.
Some 72 people were killed and 254 others wounded when Al Masry football fans attacked Al Ahly fans during a match in Port Said Stadium in February 2012.
The court adjourned the retrial to resume the defense pleadings.
In January 2013, a court sentenced 21 Masry fans to death while delaying the sentences of 52 others for legal reasons. Ahly fans welcomed the sentences but were angered that no police officers were convicted.
In March 2013, an appeal court upheld the 21 death sentences, sentenced five people to life in jail and ordered jail sentences against the others, including 15 years for two police officers. Another 28 people were acquitted, including seven policemen.
But the Cassation Court accepted appeals by the prosecution and defendants and ordered a retrial.
Investigations revealed that the defendants attacked the victims immediately after the match using knives and stones, threw some of them from the stands, and packed them into a small exit path while firing fireworks at them with deadly intent.
