Arab Spring anniversary: Protesters defy crackdown - Al Jazeera English
There are growing complaints by rights activists that forces have returned to Mubarak-era practices such as torture, random arrests and, more recently, forced disappearances.
Police brutality was among the complaints that drove Egyptians to take part in the 2011 uprising.
Sisi alleged that the 2011 uprising had deviated from its course and was forcibly hijacked for "personal gains and narrow interests", in a thinly veiled attempt to justify the military's ousting of Mohamed Morsi, Egypt's first democratically elected president.
