Ezzat named by Egypt’s Brotherhood as interim head

The Muslim Brotherhood has named Mahmoud Ezzat as interim leader to head the group after its supreme guide was arrested Tuesday, AFP reported. Ezzat, deputy leader of the Muslim Brotherhood, will assume the role of supreme guide of the group on a temporary basis after the security forces arrested supreme guide Mohamed Badie, the Freedom and Justice Party website said. Badie was arrested as the army-installed government cracks down on the Brotherhood, from which ousted President Mohamed Morsi hails.
