Egypt detains Brotherhood members
2009-01-19
Egyptian police detained at least 350 members of the Muslim Brotherhood, the group and security officials said on Sunday. The members were detained on Saturday after a large protest in central Cairo organised by the Islamist group against the Israeli offensive on Gaza. A security official estimated 620 of the group's members to have been detained on Saturday and Sunday for allegedly inciting demonstrations and membership of an illegal organisation. The group said it was still trying to find out where the men were being held.

#1  Egypt once incarcerated 20,000 of those beasts, including Zawahiri. Those were the days.
