4:23Now PlayingDemocracyNow.org - Hundreds of thousands of Egyptians have gathered in Cairo's Tahrir Square for what could be the largest demonstration since the uprising that topped former president, Hosni Mubarak. They say there has been little progress on reforms promised in the five months since the uprising. In Suez on Monday, riots were sparked by a court order to release seven policemen charged with killing demonstrators. On Tuesday, the courts acquitted three former government ministers over corruption allegations. Democracy Now! correspondent Sharif Abdel Kouddous reports live in Tahrir Square. "The head of the Mubarak regime, the senior leadership, are all gone," says Kouddous. "But many feel the body and soul of the former regime still remains. ... There is a sense the revolution is being stolen from beneath people's feet here."
