CAIRO - Protesters have begun filtering into Tahrir Square to participate in the "Disenfranchisement Friday," protests to demand that presidential candidate Ahmed Shafiq be barred from running for the country's highest office. Protesters chanted, "down with the military rule, the people are a red line." Others screamed, "Why Shafiq? Is Mubarak coming back?" "How can the man who killed your brother become your president?" The protesters also held banners with "save the revolution" and "Minister of justice: Where is the Disenfranchisement Law?" scrawled on them. Some demonstrators also expressed their displeasure with the Muslim Brotherhood's Mohamed Mursi who has made it, ahead of Shafiq, to the second and final round of elections. Several political groups including the Revolution Youth Union, Kefaya and April 6 youth movement have called for nationwide protests on Friday to demand the Disenfranchisement Law which was passed by parliament in April be applied to Shafiq thus excluding him from the presidential race.
