![]() The Brotherhod had earlier cancelled demonstrations planned for Tuesday fearing that festivities would erupt with rival protesters against the declaration. On Tuesday, more than a hundred thousand people demonstrated in Tahrir Square protesting the decree. The decree states that presidential decisions will enjoy temporary immunity from legal challenge. The decree also protects Egypt's Islamist-led Constituent Assembly, tasked with drafting a new constitution, and the Shura Council (the upper house of parliament) from dissolution by court order. |
