Egypt has sentenced more than 70 members of the Muslim Brotherhood group to prison on terror-related charges, reported The Associated Press.
The Ismailia criminal court on Tuesday sentenced nine of the defendants to 15 years in prison and 43 others to 10 years.
Another 22 were sentenced to three to seven years, and 14 were acquitted. Nearly half of the defendants were tried in absentia.
The defendants were accused of burning police vehicles and attacking a coffee shop.
The violence came in response to the dispersal of two mass sit-ins in Cairo in 2013.
