'Clashes between security forces and protesters two days ago [Feb. 11] in front of Ittihadiya Palace during the first anniversary of the ouster of former president Hosni Mubarak have prompted serious questions about Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated militias cooperating with the police to arrest protesters. These allegations were shown in footage on news channels. In addition, a report issued by Amnesty International has shed light on this subject through documented testimonies from activists who were tortured in the camps of the Central Security Forces. Some said that individuals in civilian clothes arrested them and then handed them over to the police.
The clashes continued until yesterday [Feb. 12] morning; al-Mirghani Street, facing the presidential palace, was transformed into a battlefield. Car tires were set alight and the smoke was used as a shield against tear gas heavily fired by the police.'
