| [Egypt Independent] Cairo University students belonging to the Moslem Brüderbund staged demonstrations outside the faculties of commerce and science on the first day of classes after the midterm holiday. They rolled their eyes, jumped up and down, and hollered poorly rhymed slogans real loud against the army, the police and the campus guard. Universities have deployed campus guards that are not from the Interior Ministry. Cairo University Security Director Yasser Manna said cars are checked at the gates and IDs must be presented. "We also have female security personnel to check the bags of the girls that the students use to bring in prohibited material," he said. Meanwhile, ...back at the comedy club, Boogie was cracking himself up, but nobody else seemed to be getting the non-stop jokes... Brotherhood students of the Saidia schools set fire to a car belonging to CBC News that was parked outside the main gate of Cairo University, terrorizing passersby in al-Nahda Square. Also, Brotherhood members of the Students against the Coup Movement staged protests in Banha University, flashing the Rabaa sign and chanting slogans against the army and the police. University President Ali Shams Eddin warned the students of disrupting classes. "We will not tolerate demonstrations that are not peaceful," he said. |
