New Delhi: Egypt's first freely elected president Mohamed Morsi, who was toppled in a coup on Wednesday, is a veteran Islamist who is no stranger to underground politics having broken out of jail just 30 months ago.
Morsi became President of Egypt little more than a year ago, on June 30th, 2012. Once he assumed office, he resigned as chairman of the Muslim Brotherhood's Freedom and Justice Party.
Muhammad Morsi is an academic, a professor and, by training, an engineer from a humble background.
He studied at both the University of Cairo – the breeding ground of Muslim Brotherhood founders – and the University of Southern California.
