The government has released another 200 people detained in the crackdown that followed last month’s protests, Al Masry Al Youm reports. Lawyers told the Associated Press that the people were released yesterday pending an investigation into their ties to the Ikhwan and claims they called for protests online. Authorities arrested more than 2k people after small scale protests occurred in several Egyptian cities in September.
