Minya University President Gamal Eddin Abul Magd said that the university had sent a letter to Mohamed Saad al-Katatny, a leading figure of the Muslim Brotherhood, to inform him that his contract had been terminated.
The letter was sent to Katatny in prison, and not to his place of residence.
Two other professors who are members of the Brotherhood were also dismissed for not showing up at work, while Katatny was dismissed in accordance with the law on terrorist entities.
