Although Egypt’s last round of parliamentary elections ended with the death of eight persons,  600 injured and hundreds arrested, Egyptian government didn’t declare what happened? and insist they did not shoot civilian with live ammunition and said that security forces had intervened  only to safeguard polling stations. However  there are many witnesses who said they had seen police officers opened fire on men , women and children with  live ammunition , in addition to tear gas and rubber bullets and held up the used cartridges as a proof.
