Al-Bawaba News in Paris obtained confirmed information indicating the appointment of Salah Abdel-Haq as acting general guide of the Brotherhood to succeed Ibrahim Mounir.

The appointment of Abdel-Haq came after many attempts to reunite the two conflicting Brotherhood wings, but Mahmoud Hussein's wing was strict and rejected any attempts by someone from other than their group to control the group's capabilities, specifically wanting Mahmoud Hussein himself.

The same sources reported that the selection was made unanimously based on a will from Ibrahim Mounir, which was opened in the presence of his entire group.

The delay in the selection process came as a result of a poll of some Arab countries that recently agreed to and blessed the selection process.

Salah Abdel-Haq belongs to Organization 65, which goes back to the group led by Sayyid Qutb that attempted a coup against Gamal Abdel Nasser in 1965.

Abdel-Haq was born in 1945, and at the age of 77, he is considered one of the group’s senior theorists and historians and one of its training officials. He was imprisoned at the age of 19 when he was a student in the Faculty of Medicine after being sentenced as defendant No. 34 in the Organization 65 case, and he was accompanied in the same case by his old friend, the current guide, Mohammed Badie, when Badie was a student at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine.

Abdel-Haq moved more than a month ago from Saudi Arabia to Turkey, and he will be officially announced as the acting guide before the end of the year, specifically after the end of his residency procedures in Istanbul.
