Two of the top candidates running to become Egypt's first post-revolution president have squared off in the Arab world's first televised presidential debate, one whose focus became a sometimes angry debate over their controversial pasts. Egyptians crowded around television sets in outdoor cafes for the four-hour debate on Thursday night, aired in two segments over several independent TV channels - a new experiment for Egypt after nearly 30 years of authoritarian rule under President Hosni Mubarak. Former Mubarak-era foreign minister and Arab League chairman Amr Moussa pressed Islamist doctor and former high-ranking Muslim Brotherhood member Abdel Moneim Aboul Fotouh over the latter's connections to conservative religious groups, suggesting in the end that if his opponent became president it risked a return to insecurity and terrorism.

Campaigning in Egypt has finished ahead of the country's first presidential election since last year's revolution. There's now a 48-hour political silence before voting begins on Wednesday and the new president will be announced by the end of June. But, as Rawya Rageh reports from the town of Shubra El Kheima just north of Cairo, crime is rising and has become one of the main election issues.

With shocking footage, this powerful report gets inside the fresh turmoil threatening elections. "The people want to execute the Field Marshall!", a crowd of Salafis shout as they march in the street. Just months ago they were celebrating their surprisingly strong showing in the parliamentary elections. But after the disqualification of their preferred candidate, Hazem Abu Ismail, they've taken to the streets. Up to this point the military had portrayed themselves as a neutral force protecting the people. But as the army floods in to crush a week-long sit-in, it's not an image the protesters buy into. "The thugs who attacked us were from the army." As the dramatic scenes in this report show, the military junta engaged in violent street battles with the protesters. "Where is the clinic?" a man shouts as he helps an injured protester, who has blood streaming from his head. But make-shift clinics were trampled and the injured abandoned in the mad rush to escape the army's thugs. Some well-timed state TV propaganda has fueled a number of people turning against the Salafis and other Islamist groups. Meanwhile, the military junta continues its violent oppression: "Nothing has changed. The military council, that's Mubarak's <b>...</b>

Egyptian armed forces and protesters clashed in the capital Cairo on Friday, with troops firing water cannon and tear gas at demonstrators who threw stones as they tried to march on the Defense Ministry in the Abbasiyah district, a flashpoint for a new cycle of violence only weeks ahead of presidential elections. The troops fired water cannon at protesters and hurled stones at them to keep them from advancing. The protesters took shelter behind metal sheets snatched from a nearby construction site and hurled back stones. Others climbed the roof of a nearby university and showered soldiers with rocks from above. The troops then opened up with heavy volleys of tear gas that pushed the demonstrators back. The Health Ministry reported eight protesters were injured. The security forces also appeared to sustain casualties. RT on Twitter twitter.com RT on Facebook www.facebook.com

The world's hidden hostage crisis To see more go to www.youtube.com Follow us on Facebook (goo.gl or Twitter (www.twitter.com Some of the Sinai Desert's Bedouin are using their new found freedom to turn to crime. This report reveals how they are using their autonomy to torture and murder Israel-bound refugees for hostage ransoms and even body parts. Thousands or refugees from Eritrea and Sudan cross the Sinai Desert in search of a better life in Israel, but many are subjected to a worse fate at the hands of profiteering Bedouin gangsters. Mohammed Al Ramadan was tortured for 40 days whilst held ransom for $30000: "They burnt me with fire, they were beating me with a whip." However, the Bedouins' impunity in the Sinai desert has fostered a trafficking trade with consequences far more brutal than a hefty ransom: "They trade in body parts, they slaughter people". In fact, forensic evidence suggests that many of the African victims have had their kidneys, livers and lungs removed with professional precision. A deadly clash between rival tribes also implies that controlling the refugees route is a lucrative business. With the security forces reluctant to curb this profitable busines there is fear the phenomenon can only get worse. A Film By SBS Distributed By Journeyman Pictures March 2012

Progressive Islamist Dr. Abel Fotoh and former regime man Amr Moussa are now leading an increasingly close race. Dr. Abel Fotoh has a broad range of support, crossing old political divisions in Egypt. One follower describes how, "Liberals support him. Islamists endorse him. Lots of political parties support him". But rival Amr Moussa has a well-funded and prominent campaign. Although for many he is a 'felool', a remnant of the old corrupt regime, his popularity is growing.

An Egyptian military doctor has been acquitted of forcing female protesters to undergo virginity tests. "I've been vilified by the media. Only one side was represented and I couldn't say anything because I was a conscript. The plaintiff's allegations are nonsense. I'd been waiting for this fair verdict," said Ahmed Adel the doctor accused of conducting forced virginity tests on seven female protesters rounded up by the military last year. Seventeen women said they had been violated while in military custody after rallies held last March. Al Jazeera's Rawya Rageh was one of the few journalists in court to hear the ruling.

The worst violence Egypt has seen in months is stoking political tensions in the country, ahead of the Presidential election. At least 11 people were killed and around 100 injured, when a group of unknown assailants attacked protesters early on Wednesday, sparking further fierce clashes. The protesters were staging a sit-in near the country's Ministry of Defense, voicing their anger at the banning of an Islamist candidate from the election. Various political forces have rushed to blame the ruling military for the bloodshed. While the generals say they'll hand over power to civilians if the outcome of the Presidential vote is decided in the first round, many fear that it will do little to quell the chaos, or lead to prompt democratic reforms.

Mourners packed the streets around Cairo's St. Mark's Cathedral on Sunday to pay final respects to the man who for many Egyptian Christians was the only spiritual leader they ever knew. Pope Shenouda III died on Saturday at 88 after leading the Coptic Church for four decades, overseeing an impressive worldwide expansion but, after returning from internal exile in the 1980s, rarely clashing with the government. With Christians, roughly 10 per cent of Egypt's population, worried about the new Islamist-dominated parliament, the church's next leader will face a complex challenge.

Rocks hail down on the military vehicles, each carrying a soldier firing canisters of tear-gas. Plumes of smoke erupt everywhere. "We don't want this to end ugly!", one man shouts, as some protesters try to negotiate a ceasefire. The Muslim Brotherhood tries to placate the unbridled anger of the young. But it doesn't last long. The angry youths charge the ceasefire line. "Hey military, why are you selling us out?" The protests are not endorsed by any of the major Egyptian parties. The massive football death toll has rekindled frustration at the slow transition to democracy.

www.euronews.com Coptic Christians in Egypt are mourning the death of their patriarch, Pope Shenouda III. The 88-year-old spent 40 years leading Egypt's christian minority. Many people gathered at Cairo's Abbaseya Cathedral hoping to see the body. During his time in charge, Shenouda was also popular with Muslims and seen as a symbol of religious harmony. "I would like to say that, Muslims included, we all love each other and this was what he used to speak about. When he spoke, he didn't only speak of and for Christians but for all the Egyptian people and it wasn't just talk; this is what he planted and harvested. All Egyptians are mourning his death, it's a very difficult situation," one man said choking back tears. Mourners flocked to Egypt's main Coptic church after hearing of Shenouda's death. His passing comes at a time when many of the country's 10 million Christians feel vulnerable due to rising tension with Muslims and the resurgence of Islamic-based politics since the uprising last year. Despite this, a statement on the Muslim Brotherhood's Freedom and Justice Party website expresses its condolences. Shenouda's funeral will be held on Tuesday. In the meantime, his body will be on display in the cathedral. Find us on: Youtube bit.ly Facebook www.facebook.com Twitter twitter.com
Running south from Tahrir Square toward Egypt's interior ministry in central Cairo, Mohamed Mahmoud street has become one of the revolution's most violent battlegrounds. Twelve people died in the area during February street battles between protesters and police stemming from a deadly football riot in Port Said. With the neighbourhood calm, at least for the moment, Mohamed Mahmoud now serves as a canvas for some of Egypt's most creative revolutionary street art. Murals portraying the revolution's dead as martyrs and the military as a predatory monster spread along walls next to figurative paintings that draw inspiration from millenia-old pharaonic art. Nearby, the artists debate with anxious business owners, and the revolution continues. Al Jazeera's Rawya Rageh reports from Cairo.
