Activists posing with a V sign in front of Khaled Said‘s stencils, facing the Ministry of Interior (MOI). Hundreds demonstrated on Monday denouncing continued police torture, in Sheikh Rihan Street, in front of the main gate of the MOI, a place that was a big taboo to even stand at, and which used to give me the creeps before the revolution even when just driving by it.

What about the space of Sidi Gaber police state that is responsible for his death…theres alot of coverage about cairo..any links on what the movement was like in Said’s hometown?
