CAIRO (AP) - A judicial official says a panel of judges has recommended the dissolution of the Muslim Brotherhood, Egypt s largest political group, from which ousted President Mohammed Morsi hails.
The panel said Monday in a recommendation to Egypt s administrative court that the Brotherhood has operated in violation of the law.
The recommendation isn t binding to the court, which holds its next hearing on Nov. 12. It appears however a step closer to banning the group, whose legality was disputed even before Morsi s ouster.
The Brotherhood has been banned for most of its 85 years but operated widespread social networks. Facing a slew of court cases questioning its status and funding, it hastily registered in March as a civil association.
The official spoke anonymously as he wasn t authorized to talk to the media.
