| Subject: Riot police crack down on spontaneous demonstrations against President Sisi in cities across Egypt Sun Sep 22, 2019 7:45 pm | |
| An exiled businessman whose accusations of corruption sparked the most widespread protests in Egypt in years has called for further demonstrations, as the country’s autocratic president arrived in New York to meet with other world leaders. The calls came after night time demonstrations over businessman Mohamed Ali’s allegations of corruption in the armed forces and heavy-handed rule of President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi erupted in several cities on Friday and Saturday, with scores arrested. Video posted to the internet showed police in riot gear firing teargas charging at scattered protesters running through streets. Protesters chanted “leave”, a slogan of the 2011 Arab Spring uprisings, and derided Mr Sisi as a “thief.”
