Back to days Of Mubarak? Egypt’s police clash with activists 
as protest law takes effect . . .

Police clashed with protesters in Egypt’s capital of Cairo as hundreds of activists came out to defy the new law banning public gatherings of more than ten people. Teargas and water cannons were fired as security forces enforced the new legislation.

Protesters chanted "down, down with military rule,” as some 20 people were arrested, Reuters quoted the state news agency as saying.

Hundreds of people gathered in central Cairo on Tuesday for a fresh protest against the restrictive new law. Adopted on Sunday, the legislation grants the Interior Ministry the right to ban any kind of protests of over ten people taking place without police approval.


Penunjuk perasaan telah melanda dalam saat-saat yang akan datang ke jalan-raya, RT Bel Trew dilaporkan dari Kaherah. “Ia sudah tentu berasa seperti kami berpindah ke era yang baru di sini di Mesir. Orang dilepaskan oleh gas pemedih mata dan meriam air, dan banyak dipukul dalam saat-saat yang akan datang ke jalan-raya untuk membantah dengan tidak ada alasan ini sekeping undang-undang tertentu,” dia melaporkan.

“Mereka ditahan dan antara berpuluh-puluh yang telah ditahan termasuk 16 wanita. Ini mencetuskan kegemparan di seluruh negara.”

Protesters were hit within moments of coming onto the streets, RT’s Bel Trew reported from Cairo. “It certainly feels like we moved to a new era here in Egypt. People were fired on by teargas and water cannons, and heavily beaten within moments of coming to the streets to protest in defiance of this particular piece of legislation,” she reported.

“They were rounded up and among the dozens who were arrested including sixteen women. This sparked uproar across the country.”

Pegawai keselamatan balas kepada tangkapan pada hari Selasa, mengatakan bahawa penunjuk perasaan tidak diberi kebenaran untuk perhimpunan itu dan telah memberi amaran tentang hakikat itu. Kerajaan yang disokong tentera adalah dengan alasan bahawa ia hanya mahu memulihkan keadaan di jalananan.

“Kami melaksanakan undang-undang tunjuk perasaan baru yang memerlukan penunjuk perasaan untuk mendapatkan kebenaran daripada Kementerian Dalam Negeri 3 hari sebelum protes,” kata seorang pegawai polis.

Security officials responded to Tuesday’s arrests, saying that protesters were not given permission for the gathering and were warned of that fact. The military-backed government is arguing that it simply wants to restore order to the streets.

"We are implementing the new protest law that requires protesters to seek permission from the Interior Ministry three days before the protest," a police official said.

Kumpulan hak asasi manusia telah mengkritik undang-undang, yang menyatakan bahawa ia adalah anti-demokratik. Uundang-undang baru memberikan bantahan pasukan keselamatan mengekang percuma,” kata Amnesty International.

Trew RT itu menambah bahawa aktivis Mesir berasa seolah-olah negara ini telah bertukar kembali jam untuk zaman pemerintahan Hosni Mubarak, “apabila jenis-jenis perhimpunan telah pantas bergerak dari jalan-raya oleh pasukan keselamatan yang diberi kekuasaan penuh untuk menggunakan kekerasan untuk menggerakkan orang ke atas.”

Human rights groups have criticized the law, stating that it is anti-democratic. "(The) new protest law gives security forces free rein," Amnesty International said.

RT’s Trew added that Egyptian activists feel as though the country has turned back the clock to the days of Hosni Mubarak’s rule, “when these kinds of rallies were swiftly moved from the streets by the security forces who were given the carte blanche to use violence to move people on.”
