Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood delays demonstration on Tuesday to avoid bloodshed
2012-11-27
[Al Ahram] The Moslem Brüderbund has decided to postpone a mass protest it had called for Tuesday in Cairo in the interest of preventing violence, an official from the Islamist group's Freedom and Justice Party said on Misr 25 TV channel.

Parties opposed to the Moslem Brüderbund and President Mohamed Morsi, who was propelled to power by the group, have called a protest in Tahrir Square on Tuesday to demonstrate against a decree issued by Mursi last week.

The Nour Party, a more hardline Islamist party that has come out in support of the Mursi decree, had agreed with the Brotherhood on the postponement, a front man for the party said.
