The Michigan Daily is a menber ofTthe Asociated Prss and The Associated Collegiae Press. Egyptian authorities set trial date for former leader t Hearing for former Pres. Mohammed Morsi set for Nov. 4 CAIRO (AP) - The politically charged trial of Egypt's Moham- med Morsi will begin Nov. 4, almost four months to the day after the country's first demo- cratically elected president was toppled by the military, authori- ties said Wednesday. The prosecution of Morsi on charges of inciting his followers to kill opponents of his rule takes the crackdown on his Muslim Brotherhood to a new level and is likely to fuel protests by his Islamist supporters, stoking the turmoil shaking Egypt. Since his July 3 ouster, Morsi's backers have taken to the streets in rallies met by a fierce response by security forces that has left hundreds dead. Wednesday's announcement comes as the United States announced it was cutting hun- dreds of millions of dollars in annual aid to Egypt and its mili- tary - a show of discontent with the crackdown aimed at pres- suring the interim leadership to move quickly toward a demo- cratically elected government. For Egypt's military-backed government, the trial is a chance to lay out their justification for the sweeping arrest cam- paign and ultimately for Morsi's ouster. Authorities contend the former president and the Broth- erhood, which dominated power during his year in office, com- mitted crimes while in power - and have turned to violence since his removal. But the military, now Egypt's dominant political power, also opens itself up to criticism it is carryingout show trials to crush the Brotherhood, which accus- es the army and its supporters of wrecking Egypt's fledgling democracy. Already there are questions whether the trial, in which Morsi and 14 other members of his Brotherhood are defendants, can be fair. Morsi has been held in secret military detention since his ouster, with almost no contact with the outside world beyond two phone calls with his fam- ily. During his interrogation, his defense lawyers have not been allowed to talk to him and say they have not been shown any documentation of the prosecu- tion's case. "This is a trial held under the cannon of a tank," said Mohammed Gharib, a member of Morsi's legal team. "Is this an atmosphere for a fair trial?" Morsi's son, Osama Morsi, told the Turkish news agency Anadolu that his father "rejects this trial and others and will not recognize it." Rights lawyers point out that they tried to have the case prosecuted while Morsi was in office, a sign that it is not purely based on vengeance. In this file photo, Saudi women board a taxi in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. A campaign calling on women to drive on Saturday. has started gathering support online and already has nearly 15,000 signatures. Saudi activistsh to debate flfIng ban on women driving 'I Official request for rights made to conservative ruling council last week RIYADH, Saudi Arabia (AP)S - Saudi women on the ultra- conservative kingdom's top advisory council have called for a discussion on the sensi- tive issue of allowing women to drive, a move that could embolden reformers pushing to lift the ban. The official request was made this week to the head of the Shura Council, council member Latifa al-Shaalan said, to address all "excuses" raised to keep women from driving since Islamic law and Saudi traffic laws do not forbid it. Women seeking the right to drive in Saudi Arabia have been energized by a campaign call- ing on them to drive on Oct. 26. Saudi law does not explicitly prohibit them from driving, but religious edicts by senior and influential clerics are enforced by the police, effectively ban- ning it. Authorities do not issue driving licenses to women. The campaign started as an online petition last month and has so far garnered nearly 15,000 signatures. In 2011, a Saudi woman was detained for posting an online video of herself driving, though her arrest launched wider pro- tests. The country is guided by an ultraconservative interpre- tation of Islam called Wah- habism. Women cannot travel, work, study abroad, marry, get divorced or gain admittance to a public hospital without per- mission from a male guardian - typically a husband, brother, father or uncle. Hard-line clerics have opposed the driving campaign and recently a prominent Saudi cleric caused a stir when he said medical studies show that driv- ing has adverse effects on wom- en's ovaries because it forces the pelvis upward. Al-Shaalan, the Shura Coun- cil member, told journalists that the recommendation for the discussion on women driving is not meant to coincide with the campaign and that it has been studied for a while. "It is flawed that a woman cannot drive a car after reach- ing the position of deputy min- ister, becoming a member of the Shura Council, managing a university and representing the country on international bod- ies," she said. She said it is also counterin- tuitive to force a woman to ride in a car with a male driver who may be a stranger because it contradicts the kingdom's strict rules on separation of the sexes. While the Shura Council does not have legislative pow- ers, the 30 women council members made history this year when they became the first females appointed to the body. The move by King Abdullah to give women a voice on the body was seen as part of a larger reform effort by the monarchy. In 2011, King Abdullah said women can vote and run as candidates in the 2015 munici- pal elections. Last year, the kingdom began enforcing a law that allows women to work in female apparel and lingerie stores.
