British Prime Minister David Cameron will on Thursday receive the findings of an investigation into the Muslim Brotherhood, Ahram Online understands.
A source close to the investigation said studying the report would take some time. Although the source confirmed that it is up to the prime minister to set the date for releasing the results, he ruled out the possibility of an announcement before end of this month.
Ahram Online understands that it is highly unlikely that Cameron will announce the results of the review before mid-August.
On 17 April, Cameron commissioned a government review of the Muslim Brotherhood and of government policy towards it. The aim of the review, which was led Sir John Jenkins, the British ambassador to the Saudi Arabia, was to produce an internal report for the prime minister to inform government policy.
The Brotherhood has been invited to submit evidence to the review, which covered its origins, philosophy, activities, record in and out of government, and its organisation and activities in the UK and abroad which might put at risk, damage, or risk damaging UK national interests.
The government is not expected to announce the final results of the review in full, according to sources.
One source told Ahram Online that because it is an internal review; the government does not have to make the full final report public.
The Brotherhood is understood to be worried that the results could lead the government to ban the movement's activities in the UK.
The UK considers the Brotherhood a legitimate organisation despite its being outlawed in Egypt and the Saudi Arabia.
