 Brotherhood leader 'shot dead' in Egypt

Cairo 4 Oct (ANA) - A senior leader of the Muslim Brotherhood organisation has been killed by Egyptian Interior Ministry forces, the ministry says. In a statement, it said Mohamed Kamal died in a gun battle along with another member of the group on Monday. The ministry said Mr Kamal was in charge of the group's armed wing, although the Brotherhood maintains it is a exclusively peaceful organisation. He had been sentenced to life in prison on two counts in absentia. The Muslim Brotherhood said he had disappeared on Monday.FA/ANA/4 October 2016--------
