CAIRO (Reuters) - The Muslim Brotherhood, Egypt’s powerful opposition group, said an arrest campaign targeting its members and efforts to block them from running in local polls could cause the country to “explode”.
But the Brotherhood said it will not encourage its supporters to resort to violence to protest the latest crackdown which it says aims at stopping the group from making any gains in local council elections next month.
