Supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood and ousted Egyptian President Mohamed Mursi take part in a protest against the military and interior ministry in the southern suburb of Maadi, on the outskirts of Cairo November 1, 2013.
Dozens of supporters of Egyptian ousted President Mohamed Mursi arrived to Cairo Police Academy on Monday morning where he is set to face trial on charges of inciting violence, said a local news portal.
“Down with the military rule!” chanted some of the protesters, according to the Shorouk news portal.
