An Egyptian court has sentenced nearly 200 people to die in a mass trial over the deaths of police officers in an attack last year. Defense attorneys say the accused were excluded from the courtroom and that no effort was made to prove anyone’s individual guilt. It is the third such mass sentencing of alleged Muslim Brotherhood supporters in less than a year, and comes just days after former dictator Hosni Mubarak was cleared of all charges in the deaths of hundreds of unarmed protesters rising up against his regime in 2011.
