Egypt detains senior Brotherhood leader in Cairo

Cairo: Egyptian powers on Wednesday kept senior Muslim Brotherhood figure Essam al-Erian, one of the last not many pioneers of the Islamist development to have escaped a security crackdown, the inner part service said. Security drives captured Erian, agent pioneer of the Brotherhood's Freedom and Justice Party, in the early hours of Wednesday at a flat in east Cairo where he had been sequestered from everything. Pictures of Erian circling on social media, clearly taken throughout his capture, demonstrated to him grinning and making a signal symbolising the denial of the military's ouster of president Mohamed Morsi in July. Erian was moved to Tora jail, where a significant part of the development's administration is, no doubt held, and open prosecutors have started addressing him, the official Mena news organization reported. The pioneer confronts charges of instigating viciousness on some events. The quest for Erian had developed to eight areas, consistent with a security official cited by Mena. Egypt's armed force established powers started an enormous crackdown on Morsi's supporters in August, brutally scattering two dissent camps in Cairo and making mass captures. More than 1,000 individuals have been executed since Morsi's ouster - mostly his supporters - and the powers have kept about 2,000 Islamists, incorporating the greater part of the Muslim Brotherhood's authority.
