Egypt’s former president Mohammed Morsi,
who was ousted by the army in 2013, has died after fainting in a courtroom, state TV says.
Morsi, a former top figure in the now-banned Islamist movement Muslim Brotherhood, was at a session over accusations of espionage charges.
He was 67.
He was overthrown following mass protests a year after he took office as the country’s first democratically elected leader.
He had remained in custody since then.
