The Muslim Brotherhood has decided to move Saturday’s protests in support of President Mohamed Morsy’s constitutional declaration to Cairo University, the group announced on its official English Twitter on Thursday evening.
Some feared that violence could erupt between Islamist demonstrators and revolutionary activists, also protesting in Tahrir against the decree that gave Morsy sweeping, unprecedented powers. Three have already died in violent clashes in Cairo and other governorates between pro and anti-Morsy protesters.
Nader Bakkar of the Salafi Nour Party said that his and other Islamist groups had also decided to move their protests to the vicinity of Cairo University this Saturday.
