Clashes as Egypt Police Disperse Islamist Demos
[An Nahar] Clashes erupted in Cairo and other Egyptian cities Friday as police dispersed protests staged by Islamists defying a new law banning unauthorized demonstrations, security officials said.Police used tear gas against supporters of ousted Islamist president Mohammed Morsi ...the former president of Egypt. A proponent of the One Man, One Vote, One Timeprinciple, Morsi won election after the deposal of Hosni Mubarak and jumped to the conclusion it was his turn to be dictator... in the capital's Mohandessin district and on a key road leading to the pyramids. Protesters retaliated by throwing stones and burning tires, the officials said. Police also dispersed protests in the cities of Suez, Mahalla and Qena, they added. The Moslem Brüderbund to which Morsi belonged had called for protests after the weekly Friday prayers, and the demonstrations began as mosques emptied. Posted by: Fred 2013-11-30 |
