Deposed Egyptian President Mohamed Mursi will face trial on charges of insulting the judiciary, a judicial source said on Sunday, a signal that Egyptian authorities have no intention of easing a crackdown on his Muslim Brotherhood. This is the fourth court case to face Mursi since he was ousted by the army in July after mass protests against his one-year rule. Mursi and 25 others have been charged with insulting the judiciary, the source said. Egypt has been stepping up pressure on the Brotherhood, which it has labeled a terrorist organization.
