ROUGH CUT (NO REPORTER NARRATION)
STORY: Egyptian students marched in support of ousted Islamist President Mohamed Mursi at several universities around the country on Tuesday to demand Mursi's return, and call for justice for protesters killed by security forces.
Several hundred students marched from inside Cairo University to a square just beyond the University's gates, where they beat drums, and chanted for Mursi's return.
Mursi was removed from power by the army following mass protests against him in late June.
Many of the students held up the four fingered sign that symbolizes solidarity with those killed when the Raba'a al-Adawiya square was cleared by the security forces in August.
More than 1,000 Mursi supporters have been killed by the army and police since the crackdown on the Muslim Brotherhood and Mursi's supporters began in mid-August.
On Sunday, 53 people were killed and hundreds wounded in clashes with security forces, the highest death
