#Rabaa_Today | #Egypt | #Religious_parties Case to ban religious parties postponed Nov 26 The Court of Urgent Matters postponed a verdict in the lawsuit that demands the disbanding of all political parties with a religious platform. The lawsuit was filed by Tarek Mahmoud, legal advisor of the Popular Front against the Brotherhoodization of Egypt, established in 2012 after the Muslim Brotherhood came to power. Mahmoud based his lawsuit on Article 74 of the 2013 constitution, drafted after the toppling of Brotherhood rule, which says “all citizens have the right to establish political parties as regulated by the law provided that those parties are not formed on the basis of religion, gender or ethnic discrimination, sectarianism, or geographical location.” The article also says political parties can only be dissolved through a court order.
