Human rights sources provided a toll for the detainees during two days of protests calling for the departure of President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, and at a time when the demonstrations took place in several regions despite the security restrictions, political forces expected that they would be a prelude to a wider public anger.

Lawyer Khaled Ali revealed that the security authorities had arrested 25 people during the past two days, and said that they had been investigated by the State Security Prosecution from Monday until dawn today Tuesday.

Ali added, in a blog post on social media, that the Public Prosecution decided to detain the detainees for 15 days pending investigation.

Local media, citing security sources, showed video clips of citizens from the city of Badrasheen in Giza Governorate standing in two rows on a street surrounded by security personnel after they were arrested on charges of assaulting a police car.

The protests renewed in response to the call of the citizen artist and businessman Mohamed Ali, at a time of social tension in Egypt due to the house demolition law known as the Reconciliation Law, which imposes large financial fees on the poor involved in removal campaigns in exchange for "reconciliation" with the state. 

Demonstrators' demands


During the demonstrations, which took place over the past two days in a number of popular neighborhoods and villages in governorates including Giza, Qalyubia, Fayoum and Alexandria, the participants chanted slogans calling for an end to what they described as the military rule of the country and the departure of Sisi.

Yesterday and last night, demonstrations raised slogans against Sisi in Shubra al-Kheima in Qalyubia, and in al-Warraq in Giza, and the demonstrators chanted against the president's recent decisions, calling on the masses of people to join them, despite the mobilization and security tightening imposed by the security forces.

Demonstrations also took place in Dar es Salaam in response to calls for demonstrations, and the demonstrators renewed their rejection of the reconciliation law approved by the regime, and demanded the departure of Sisi and his regime, and held him responsible for the deteriorating situation.

Protesters chanted in the city of Al-Ayyat in Giza, "We will answer the land, in length."

Also in Giza, local leaders met in Al-Kadaya, from which the spark of the September 20 demonstrations sparked, in order to calm the situation in the village and call on citizens not to demonstrate.

A video clip, circulated by activists on the communication sites, showed the leaders meeting in the house of the parliamentarian from the Giza Governorate, Qassem Faraj Abu Zaid, in the presence of Representative Alaa Abed, a former state security officer responsible for the government human rights file in the country and accused of torture cases.

In the video, Abed said that Al-Kadaya is not the only one whose residents suffer due to the current conditions, and that all neighboring villages suffer from the same problems.

And on social networking sites, the hashtag (# We don't want you) issued the Egyptian Trading List, after the president declared again that he did not want to remain in power if the people wanted him to leave.

Al-Sisi had said in his speech, "If you don’t want me, I’ll still have a problem,” during the opening of the Mahmudiyah axis project.

A wider movement


, and a group of Egyptian political forces, bodies and personalities said that the street movement is a prelude to a wider movement and a major uprising that pervades Egypt, according to her expression.

The group added that the movement will not stop until the liberation of Egypt from its rapists, who betrayed the country, insulted the military institution, and implicated the country in corrupt deals, according to the statement.

In its signed statement, the group of political forces affirmed their support for the people's movement against injustice and the law of collecting simple homes under the name of the Reconciliation Law.

This group considered Sunday's movement a restoration of the January revolution and an affirmation of its principles.

Among the most prominent forces that signed the statement were the National Alliance to Support Legitimacy, the Muslim Brotherhood, Egyptian parliamentarians abroad, the Revolution Ghad Party, the Reform Party, and the Virtue Party, the Islamic Party.

The Egyptian contractor residing in Spain (Ali) called on the Egyptians to new demonstrations, saying that they had broken the barrier of fear and would not leave before Sisi was toppled.
