Video - : Pro and anti Morsi protesters clash in Tahrir.

Clashes erupt when supporters of ousted president Mohamed Morsi march to Tahrir where massive protests against are staged.

Clashes erupted Friday when supporters of deposed president Mohamed Morsi marched toTahrir where massive protests against him had been taking place.

Scuffles broke out just hours after the Supreme Guide of the Muslim Brotherhood – the group from which Morsi hails – told his supporters to keep protesting until the former president is reinstated. Clashes ensued for several hours until the army and the police intervened.

The Muslim Brotherhood’s Deputy Supreme Guide, Khairat El-Shater, was arrested late Friday along with his brother in Cairo’s Nasr City district. He is being held on charges of inciting violence.

Shater, a wealthy businessman and a former presidential candidate who was initially disqualified from last year’s presidential elections due to his questionable legal status, was seen by many Egyptians as the shadow power behind Morsi's throne.

A day earlier, El-Shater was slapped a travel ban along with many other leading Brotherhood figures, most of whom have also been arrested.

Earlier on Friday, leading Brotherhood figures Saad El-Katatni and Rashad Bayoumi were released from Tora prison pending investigations, one day after being arrested.HT: AlAhram.
