Muhammad Awad was detained few minutes ago by the police in front of the Cairo Press Syndicate in Abdel Khaleq Tharwat Street.
UPDATE: More activists detained in Cairo and Mansoura, including Ghazl el-Mahalla’s Kamal el-Fayoumi and Muhammad Abdul Quddous of the Liberties’ Committee as they were trying to embark with others on a solidarity trip to Gaza that was due to take off today from in front of the Press Syndicate.
UPDATE: I just spoke with Ahmad Abdel Fattah. He is currently detained by the police inside a shop in downtown Cairo’s el-Sharawrbi Street after they confiscated his camera.
I’ll be posting the updates on Jaiku.
UPDATE: Check out this report by AFP.
