Investigators claim the protesters, who were wearing masks to protect them against tear gas canisters, were paid to stage riots. Since the Brotherhood was declared a terrorist organization by the interim government, the crackdown on the group has increased two-fold. Hundreds of members have been tossed in the calaboose Drop the rod and step away witcher hands up! and now protesting with the organization or passing our their literature is now grounds for arrest.
