The youngest son of deceased ex-president Mohamed Morsi was buried at 2 a.m. on Friday, after Egyptian authorities allowed the body to be released amid tight security.
The body of Abdallah Morsi was released from the Cairo Zeinhom morgue late on Thursday, after a funeral prayer in absentia was held for the 25-year-old.
Abdallah's brothers, Ahmed and Omar, accompanied their mother Najla Mahmoud, who took the body to its final resting place, alongside their father who passed away earlier this year.
Egyptian authorities warned the family against a large congregation at the time of the burial, sources close to the family told The New Arab.
