MojNews-The death of former Egyptian President Mohamed Mursi is not normal, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said Tuesday.

"There are concerns whether it [Mursi&#۳۹;s death] was normal or whether there is another situation at hand. I do not believe that this was a normal death," Erdoğan said following the funeral prayer held in abstentia in Istanbul.

"They are too scared to even deliver Mursi to his family."

‘Mursi’s death is the result of a long assassination operation’

Libya’s Chairman of the High Council of State Khalid al-Mishri slammed the current putschist regime of Abdel Fattah el-Sisi , saying that Mursi’s death was the result of a years-long assassination operation.”

“The assassination began with a coup against the legitimate administration, continued with him being confined to a solitary cell, and finally ended with his being deprived of his basic rights, including medical treatment,” al-Mishri stated.

Morsi, who passed away Monday while in a courtroom facing charges many believed to be politically-motivated, became the president of Egypt in June ۲۰۱۲, after former leader Hosni Mubarak stepped down following mass demonstrations.
