Security and army forces arrested a number of Muslim Brotherhood leaders in Qena on Sunday in light of a crackdown by Egypt's interim government on supporters of ousted President Mohamed Mursi. 

The list of detainees included former member of the Shura Council Mohamed Abdel Naby and head of the Engineers Syndicate Mohamed Abdel Hady, reported the state news agency.
