A number of youths of the Black Bloc Movement have attempted to torch Egypt's High Court in protest over the imprisonment of some of the group’s members.

On Friday, some youths of the Black Bloc Movement -- a violent group opposed to the Muslim Brotherhood -- threw Molotov cocktails at the High Court as the security forces fired tear gas to disperse the rioters.

Egyptian police arrested 12 members of the Black Bloc Movement after clashes outside Cairo’s presidential palace in Heliopolis on April 28 in which a police vehicle was set on fire.

The members of the Black Bloc movement wear black clothing, scarves, sunglasses, and ski masks to hide their identities.
