Ahly Club Ultras (hardcore football fans) are organising on Saturday a mass protest to head to the Police Academy in Cairo's Fifth Compound in conjunction with the court ruling expected to be announced in the Port Said football tragedy of last year.Thousands of al-Masry football club Ultras "Masrawy" and "Green Eagles" have started a sit-in in front of Port Said Prison since last Thursday in preparation for today's ruling.
A number of defendants are on trial for killing 74 people during riots that followed a football match between al-Ahly and al-Masry clubs in Port Said last February.
Chief prosecutor General Talaat Abdallah presented last Monday a memorandum to Port Said Criminal Court to reopen the proceedings of the case in light of new evidence.
