University Students Stage Anti-government Protests Inegypt by bladegirl7: 8:54pm On Oct 08, 2013
Deadly clashes
with security
agents on Sunday was not enough to stop anti-government protesters as
they were out in hundreds on Tuesday, chanting “Down with the military
government” outside Cairo University.
Supporters of deposed President Mohamed Morsi had urged university
students to protest against the army following the violence on Sunday, one
of the Egypt’s bloodiest days since the military ousted the Islamist leader on
July 3.
State media said 57 people were killed on a national holiday that marks the
start of Egypt’s 1973 war against Israel.
“We are here standing against the coup,” said Enas Madkour, a 19-year-old
fine arts student at the march near Cairo University, where security forces
had parked two tanks and blocked the main road with barbed wire. “I’m
against Morsi but I’m not for people killing others and I’m not for the
military government we have now.”
Other students dismissed those views, however. “Sisi is a hero and there’s
no one like him,” said Rania Ibrahim, 18, referring to General Abdel Fattah
el-Sisi, the defence minister who led Morsi’s ouster.
Small protests also occurred at Helwan University in southern Cairo,
witnesses said.
At Zagazig University, northeast of Cairo, pro-Brotherhood students clashed
with residents and Brotherhood opponents with fists, sticks and stones,
security sources said. Eight people were wounded.
Meanwhile crackdown on Muslim Brotherhood continues as Egypt’s
cabinet, Tuesday, ordered authorities to remove the Muslim Brotherhood
from the list of approved non-governmental organisations following a
judicial order, according to state media.
The move comes after an Egyptian court last month banned the Muslim
Brotherhood from operating and ordered its assets seized, amid a massive
crackdown on the group following the military ouster of Islamist President
Mohamed Morsi.
In its September 23 ruling, the court had also banned “any institution
branching out from or belonging to the Brotherhood”.
The Brotherhood is appealing that decision, with a court date scheduled
later this month, so Tuesday’s decision by the cabinet was an unexpected
strike against the group.
The Brotherhood’s NGO was registered in March, while Morsi was still in
power. It was set up as one of the two main legal faces of the Islamist
group, which was outlawed for most of its 85-year existence.
