Brotherhood leader hails Egyptians' boycott of presidential elections

General Guide of the Muslim Brotherhood Dr Mohamed Badie said that the nationwide boycott of the 2014 presidential elections proves that the Egyptian people has “insisted on providing a model worthy of emulation.”

Badie made the remarks after his “Istikama mosque trial” session had been adjourned on Saturday.

Badie added: “Even if they imposed a E£500,000 (EGP) penalty for their boycott, the Egyptian people would not take part.”
