| Mohamed Ibrahim, Egypt's Minister of Interior |
Amid the continuing clashes and protests in Egypt nationwide and the
growing protests of the police officers and personnel Egypt’s official state’s
news agency reported that Egyptian Minister of Interior Mohamed Ibrahim has
sacked General Maged Nouh, Commander of the Central Security Forces (CSF). More
details are expected to be soon.
Meanwhile the policemen’s protests continue and growing in the country
with more police stations refusing to work until their demands will be met.
Thus, several police stations in Cairo’s districts of Helwan and Maadi have
been reportedly closed for work. Several police stations in the coastal city of
Alexandria have joined the protests too.
We would remind here that Egypt is facing the protests of the police
forces officers, personnel and recruits during the several days. The protests
sparked all over the country with the policemen protesting against the
deteriorating und inhumane conditions of work, domination of Muslim Brotherhood
in the country’s politics including the policies of the Interior Ministry and
demanding the dismissal of the current Minister of Interior Mohamed Ibrahim, who
was recently appointed by the President Mohamed Morsy. Policemen also accuse
the Minister of trying to create the confrontation between the protesting
citizens and the police personnel pushing the policemen into the conflict.
The situation in Egypt remains tense with the
continuing protests’ actions of the CSF personnel and officers, the
demonstrations and clashes in Port Said, Cairo and other governorates as well
and the deepening political crisis, especially after the Administrative Court
has cancelled the controversial parliamentary elections scheduled to begin on
22 April this year.
