　　In Monday's verdict, the court approved the death sentences for 183 and acquitted5 two others. The sentence of a minor6 was reduced to 10 years in prison.
　　The court also dropped the charges against two others who are dead now.
　　In August, 2013, the 188 men stormed a police station in Kerdassa, a town on the outskirts7 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 ousted8 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.
