An Egyptian court on Wednesday turned down an appeal by the Muslim Brotherhood against a previous court ruling that banned the group and seized its funds, official news agency MENA reported. A court decided late September to ban all activities of the Islamist group as a non-governmental organisation (NGO) and to confiscate its assets and funds. The decision is seen as one of the interim authorities' move to crack down on the Brotherhood after former President Mohamed Morsi was toppled by military on July 3 in response to mass nationwide protests against his single year rule. According to the ruling, the cabinet will form an independent panel to temporarily supervise and manage the money, until the court gives an irrevocable verdict. MENA said Counsellor Ezzet Khamis was appointed as the head of the committee. The Egypt's oldest Islamist group was dissolved on Oct.
