Ousted Egyptian president Mohamed Morsi has rejected the trial against him that began Monday, insisting that he is the country's "legitimate president."

被推翻的埃及总统穆尔西拒绝接受对他的审判，他坚持称自己是埃及的“合法总统”。对穆尔西的审判在星期一开始。

In his first public appearance since the military pushed him from power in July, Mr. Morsi was defiant.The start of the trial was delayed because he refused to dress in the traditional white jumpsuit worn by defendants.

穆尔西在7月被军队推翻后首次公开露面。他拒不从命。穆尔西不肯穿上被告一向要穿的白色囚服，审判开始的时间因此被推迟。

A judge then adjourned the trial minutes after it began because of protest chants by Mr. Morsi and his co-defendants.It was expected to resume later Monday.

审判开始几分钟后，穆尔西及其同案被告又大声抗议，法官随后宣布暂时休庭。预计审判将在同天晚些时候恢复。

The trial is being held at the same Cairo police academy where another ousted leader, Hosni Mubarak, has faced prosecution.

审判地点在开罗警官学院，另一位被推翻的埃及领导人穆巴拉克也在这里受过审。

Security was heavy outside the venue, where a crowd of Mr. Morsi's supporters gathered to protest what they say in an illegitimate trial.

审判地点外戒备森严，穆尔西的支持者聚集在外，抗议他们所说的非法审判。
