Brotherhood: Arrest of Mubarak and his sons first step towards justice

The Muslim Brotherhood group called the detention of deposed President Hosni Mubarak and his two sons a first step towards achieving justice.

“It was the least thing the government could do,” said group member Sobhi Saleh. “They need to arrest all governors and local council leaders as well."

Saleh said there would be a new million-man demonstration on Friday now that Mubarak and his sons have been arrested.

Brotherhood member Helmy al-Gazar said Mubarak had a chance to achieve reform and social justice when he was in power but wasted it in favor of enriching himself and his family.
