CAIRO, Mar 2 (Aswat Masriya) A Cairo criminal court adjourned on Sunday the trial of ousted President Mohamed Mursi and other Muslim Brotherhood leaders, over the Ittihadiya clashes, to Tuesday. 

The court adjourned the trial because Mursi could not attend today's hearing due to the poor weather conditions, a judicial source told Aswat Masriya. 

Mursi and his top aides are accused of inciting the killing of peaceful protesters in front of the Heliopolis presidential palace in December 2012 in light of protests against a constitutional decree issued by the Islamist president. 

Mursi and the others are also accused of other crimes, including spying in collaboration with foreign bodies.
