Protests across Egypt against Mubarak rule

CAIRO — Egyptian riot police fired tear gas and clashed with demonstrators staging protests nationwide yesterday against President Hosni Mubarak’s “dictatorship,” arresting more than 200 people, organisers said.

Pro-reform activitists have escalated their campaign for constitutional and political reforms in the country in recent weeks, with many calling on the veteran leader to step down when his mandate expires later this year.

“No to dictatorship,” a group of an estimated 1,000 protesters chanted outside the Fatteh Mosque in central Cairo.

“No to cosmetic reforms, yes to real reforms,” they shouted as thousands of baton-wielding and shield-carrying security forces sealed off the area to prevent trouble.

The protesters also denounced the state-owned media as “corrupt” and chanted slogans calling for the abrogation of emergency laws that have been in place since the 1981 assassination of president Anwar Sadat.
