Supporters call for pro-Morsi demo on Wednesday

CAIRO: Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood called a support rally outside President Mohamed Morsi's palace on Wednesday, a day after the opponents besieged the complex calling for his ouster.

"The Muslim Brotherhood and other popular forces have called for a demonstration outside the Itihadiya palace on Wednesday afternoon to defend legitimacy after (protesters) yesterday thought they could impose their opinions through force," said the Muslim Brotherhood's spokesman Mahmud Ghozlan in a statement.
