Reuters - The organizers of the protest Egyptian hoped that a million people will attend the "March to Victory" this Friday, one week to the day after the resignation of Hosni Mubarak.
The initiative aims to remind the "street power" to the generals of the Supreme Council of the armed forces now in control of the most populous Arab country.
They said on Thursday they would not present a candidate for the presidential election should crown the transition."There will be no candidate from the army in the next presidential election," said a senior military official.
"The armed forces have no future ambitions and want to return power to civilians when parties will be strong and not risk of collapse", stressed Wednesday night Etmaan Gen. Ismail, spokesman of the Army .
The Egyptian judiciary has also Thursday ordered the detention of three former ministers suspected of embezzling public funds, including Habib el Adli, the former interior minister reviled by the Egyptians.
Hosni Mubarak was stripped away in the early days of the challenge but was unable to appease the anger of the street.
The two other former ministers are Zouhair Garana, which was Minister of Tourism Ahmed el-Maghrabi and who was responsible for Housing.
This measure of detention for a period of fifteen days is also Ahmed Ezz. This steel magnate, close to Gamal Mubarak, the youngest son of the deposed president, was charged with the same charges.
All four deny the allegations against them.
