Panic spreads through the crowd as a wounded demonstrator is carried away from a street battle in Cairo.<br/> A motorbike ambulance is on hand to take another of the injured from the front line, a common sight in such protests.<br/> The sit-in outside the Egyptian parliament was a remnant of bigger protests last month in Tahrir Square that left dozens dead and overshadowed the build-up to the first parliamentary election since the overthrow of the Mubarak regime in February.<br/> The mood turned violent on Friday when rumours spread that an anti-government activist had been detained and badly beaten.<br/> Police tried to disperse around 300 demonstrators who said they were angered by online images of the man with his face badly bruised and eyes swollen shut.<br/> An official at the health ministry said around 36 people had been injured in the clashes and five had gunshot wounds.<br/> Lily Grimes, Reuters
