Mubarak TV ban sparks court clashes

Relatives of protesters killed during Egypt’s uprising fought with police and tried to force their way into a Cairo court today for the latest session in the trial of overthrown president Hosni Mubarak.

Live TV broadcasts of the landmark trial have been halted by a judge’s order, and family members massed outside the courtroom were angered they could not witness the prosecution of the former leader charged with complicity in their loved ones’ deaths.
