An Egyptian court sentenced 59 suspected members of the Muslim Brotherhood to 15 years in prison on Thursday over the 2013 Rabaa al-Adawiya protest.
Seven other defendants were handed five-year sentences following the latest mass trial in the government's crackdown on the former ruling party, now blacklisted as a terror group.
The court acquitted 29 of the accused.
The charges related to a nearly six-week-long sit-in in the capital's Rabaa al-Adaweya Square was triggered by the overthrow of former president Mohamed Morsi.
The charges in the Rabaa trial included organizing or participating in the sit-in, blocking roads and the murder of security personnel ordered to disperse the protest.
