Osama Morsi: Criminal Junta Prison Actions Threaten President Morsi Life

Osama Morsi: Criminal Junta Prison Actions Threaten President Morsi Life

Osama Morsi, President Mohamed Morsi’s eldest son, said there are procedures and actions in prison that imperil his father’s life.


In a post on his official Facebook page, Morsi’s son said: "In court today (Saturday), President Mohamed Morsi said he was given food that could have caused a crime against him had he eaten it. He further said that he suffered a major shift in treatment inside the prison, and that he suffers dangerously low blood sugar every evening, because he avoids eating food almost completely, due to his suspicions about the food provided by the prison administration. He also mentioned several other procedures and actions that endanger his life".


Earlier on Saturday, during his trial on political trumped up charges of spying for Qatar, President Mohamed Morsi said he "refused to eat food that would’ve led to a crime being committed" against  him.


President Morsi also said that "five different actions occurred to him in prison that were meant to perpetrate a crime against him".
