On orders from Essam Sharaf’s cabinet, Central Security Forces troops suspended by force yesterday protests by Awqaf farmers, auto workers around the parliament, smashed student protesters in front of the ministry of higher education, and dispersed urban poor protesters demanding housing in front of Maspero.
UPDATE: Per blogs about Egypt’s neoliberal counter-revolution.
Families of martyrs who fell during the uprising are now staging a sit-in in front of the State TV building, Maspero, after the trial of 13 Giza policemen have been adjourned to 3 July. The families feel the trial is nothing but a circus, saying they are coming under pressure from the police to drop the charges against the accused pigs. Moreover, those policemen, the families say, are actually still in service and have not been even taken into custody.
