In his speech to the UN General Assembly on Thursday, Marzouki called on Egyptian authorities to release deposed president Mohamed Morsi and all "political prisoners".
He argued that such move will help easing political tension and ending violence, and called on all parties in Egypt to resort to dialogue to resolve the crisis.
Morsi, Egypt's first democratically elected president, was ousted by the Egypt's military on July 3 after mass protests against his presidency.
Ever since, the Islamist leader, who hails to the Muslim Brotherhood, has not been seen in public and his whereabouts remains undisclosed.
Egyptian authorities have unleashed a massive crackdown on Muslim Brotherhood leaders, rounding up hundreds of the group's senior and mid-ranking members, topped by Brotherhood leader Mohamed Badie and deputies Khairat al-Shater and Rashad Bayoumi.
