Head of the Sakhnin Islamic movement, Sheikh Ali Abu Ria, added that "The Egyptian people have chosen Morsi and their choice must be honored.
"Overthrowing Morsi is a dangerous and irrational move. The army's job is to ensure the people's security and not interfere with politics. It's not possible that the army would make decisions and dictate who the president will be," Abu Ria added.
