Undated handout picture shows Egyptian Abboud al-Zumur, a former senior member of the Egyptian Islamic Jihad, in an Egyptian military uniform. A Cairo criminal court dismissed an appeal for release from prison by Zumur, convicted for his involvement in the 1981 assassination of former Egyptian president Anwar al-Sadat, saying the matter was not under its jurisdiction. Zumur filed a lawsuit demanding his release because his life sentence -- set at 25 years in Egypt -- had been completed.
