Turkish leader Recep Tayyip Erdogan cast doubt on the official explanation for the death of former Egyptian President Mohamed Mursi, comments sure to deepen a years-long feud with the North African nation.
“I don’t believe this is a natural death,” Erdogan said in Istanbul during funeral prayers for Mursi, the 67-year-old Muslim Brotherhood leader who was Egypt’s first freely-elected president until his 2013 overthrow by his army chief.
