A group of 14 women protesters will formally appeal against their 11-year jail sentences on December 7, their lawyer has said. An appeal by seven girls, all under the age of 18 and part of the same case, will be heard by a separate court for juveniles on the same day, Ayman Dali told the AFP news agency. "Their appeals have been submitted and the appeals session has been set for December 7," Dali said. On Wednesday, an Egyptian court in the Mediterranean city of Alexandria sentenced the women who it said were members of the Muslim Brotherhood movement to 11 years in jail.
