An Egyptian court has ruled that parts of the country’s election law violate the constitution.
Egypt court rejects election law

On Sunday, Egypt’s Supreme Constitutional Court rejected as unconstitutional a clause in the country’s election law which divided electoral districts for the upcoming parliamentary elections.

The court decided that the electorate would fail to be fairly and adequately represented in Egypt’s next parliament as the present law’s mechanism for dividing constituencies is flawed.

The court has now to decide if the Egyptian parliamentary voting, due to be held on March 21, should be delayed or not.
