Ahram Online, Thursday 2 Feb 2012

Marches protesting the killing of 71 people during Ahly Masry match have reached the Interior Ministry HQ. Thousands are now facing the security forces before the Interior Ministry HQ. The situation there is very tense. Many of the protesters who refused to join the march to the Ministry of Interior, choosing to stop in Tahrir Square near 500 metres from the ministry, are worried that clashes would erupt any minute between protesters and the police, according to Ahram Online reporter at the scene. 

Thousands of protesters participated in the marches that started Thursday afternoon from outside Ahly club gates towards Tahrir square and the MIO headquarters.
