because he is under 18 years old.

Clashes erupted in Fayoum on Friday when Brotherhood members allegedly attempted to break into the security directorate building during a march organised by the pro-Morsi National Alliance to Support Legitimacy.

Police used teargas to disperse the attempt and the two sides exchanged birdshot.

At least six police suffered from temporary suffocation, including three conscripts. An injured police officer was released on Saturday from the medical insurance hospital.

Another 13 injured were treated in a hospital owned by the secretary general of the Freedom and Justice Party in Fayoum.
