Dozens of families of martyrs killed during Egypt's January 25 revolution on Monday protested outside the official TV building on Cairo's Nile Corniche, demanding instant trials for the officials involved in killing their relatives. Eyewitnesses said 150 relatives of the protesters had started a sit-in blocking a main road in Cairo against what they called a 'slow pace of trials', the official Middle East News Agency (MENA). According to the Ministry of Health, more than 800 protesters were killed during the nationwide demonstrations that forced Hosni Mubarak to step down on February 11. The protesters were later joined by some other people from shanty towns who call for the State to provide them with apartments of flats as part of a national housing project.
