Essam Sultan, deputy leader of the Islamist Wasat Party, will remain in jail on separate charges despite prosecutors ordering his release
Prosecutors have ordered the release of WasatParty deputy leader Essam Sultan in his case of inciting violence.
Sultan will remain in custody, however, as he is facing separate trials for insulting the judiciary and assaulting a police officer.
Sultan and Wasat Party leader Abul-Ela Mady are accused of inciting violence during the pro-Mohamed Morsi RabaaAl-Adawiyasit-in, which allegedly led to the torturing to death of three people.
The court had ordered Sultan's release once beforebut the decision was overturned when prosecutors appealed it.
The two men are also accused of calling on Islamists to torch state institutions in Nasr City. Both were arrested in July and were transferred to Tora Prison on the outskirts of Cairo.
