In Monday's verdict, the court approved the death sentences for 183 and acquitted 5 two others. The sentence of a minor 6 was reduced to 10 years in prison.

In August, 2013, the 188 men stormed a police station in Kerdassa, a town on the outskirts 7 of Cairo, killing 16 policemen.
The attack came in response to the deadly dispersal of two protest camps staged by Brotherhood members in Cairo after Islamist president Mohamed Morsi was ousted 8 by the military on July 3, 2013. Hundreds of protesters were killed.
Since Morsi's ouster, thousands of Muslim brotherhood members and supporters have been arrested and put on mass trials.
