Morsi’s family lashes out at Egypt’s military

CAIRO (AP) — The family of ousted Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi accused the country’s military generals today of “kidnapping” him, and said that it holds the army responsible for his “safety and security.” The statement is the first from Morsi’s family since the military overthrew him on July 3 and took him into custody. Morsi has been held incommunicado since then. Government officials say he is safe and is being held for his own protection.
