Egypt US Foreign democracy activists on trial in Cairo

Human rights groups have strongly criticised the Egyptian investigation. They say the charges are part of an orchestrated campaign to silence groups critical of Egypt's ruling Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (Scaf). The case has provoked loud protests from Washington, and even threats to cut off the $1.5bn ( 1bn) of aid paid to Egypt each year. But inside Egypt, the raids and arrests have won widespread popular support, relieving some of the pressure on the military council as it moves towards a handover of power to civilians in the coming months, our correspondent reports.
