Egypt court suspends April general elections
CAIRO. March 6. KAZINFORM An Egyptian administrative court has suspended general elections that were scheduled to begin next month.
It said it acted because the upper house of parliament had not returned the amended electoral law to the Constitutional Court for review.
The poll - set by President Mohammed Morsi for 22 April - has been boycotted by the main opposition.
It has said the electoral law favours Mr Morsi's Islamist supporters - a claim denied by the president.
