Egypt court rejects election law, further poll delays expected
Egypt 's highest court ruled on Saturday that parts of a revised election law setting out terms for a parliamentary election were unconstitutional, casting fresh doubt over a poll that has already been delayed.
The Islamist-dominated upper house of parliament had approved the law last month and sent it to the Supreme Constitutional Court to check the legality of the voting procedures for a new lower house.
Opposition politicians had denounced the text of the revised election law approved by parliament and repeated threats to boycott the vote.
