Egypt Executes Six Convicted Muslim Terrorists; Hangings Occur After Morsi Gets Death Sentence

Egyptian authorities today (May 17, 2015) executed six men convicted of attacking soldiers and police officers, the Big News Network website reports.

The men were put to death by hanging today after a military court handed down death sentences against them last October.

The hangings were carried out after former President Mohammed Morsi and numerous leaders of the Muslim Brotherhood were sentenced to death yesterday for escaping from prison during the 2011 revolution.

The executed terrorists were arrested during raids by security forces and were found guilty of murdering two officials in the Arab Sherkes zone, and attacking a bus carrying soldiers in the Al Amiriya area and a security post in Mostorod, all of which are located in Qaliubiya province north of Cairo.
