Central Security Forces troops, as well as State Security Police are still around the Cairo Press Syndicate, and are letting with difficulty people get in or out, according to a phone call from the Sandmonkey, who said the police were verbally threatening blogger Mohamed Gamal (Gemyhood).

I called Gemyhood, who answered the phone while running in the downtown alleys. He says four plainclothes police thugs are after him trying to beat him up..

UPDATE: A reader alerted me to those two videos uploaded around 40 mins ago to YouTube, of the Kefaya demonstrators infront of the Cairo Press Syndicate, chanting against Mubarak, police torture, and in solidarity with the Mahalla strikers…
