judicial powers   Mon, 28/01/2013 - 19:02  The Shura Council has
approved a law granting the Armed Forces the power to arrest
civilians in the name of keeping the peace.  The law was
proposed by the Cabinet earlier on Monday.  Shura Council MP
Nagy al-Shehaby said the country needs the Armed Forces to
intervene in order to preserve stability, and protect President
Mohamed Morsy's legitimacy.  Former chief of the military
judiciary Major General Adel al-Morsy said that with this draft
law, the president no longer needed to impose the month-long
state of emergency that was issued yesterday for Port Said, Suez
and Ismailia.  MP Soby Saleh said the law is needed because the
Interior Ministry has instructed its forces not to use arms, so
increased security is required to fight against conspiracies
against state institutions and attempts to break into
governmental buildings.   MSurging violence in
