EOHR filed a case on Monday 31\5\2010 in the Council of State against the High Elections Commission and the National Council for Human which is competent
with receiving requests of the civil society organizations to issue the monitoring permits, Hafez Abu Seada, chairman of EOHR has filed the case No.34703 as the case will be heard tomorrow.
Abu Seada in his case called for stopping the decision of the High Elections Commission which abstains from issuing permits to EOHR’s observers and execute the verdict without the need to declaration.
It is worth noting that EOHR has already submitted a request for 125 permits for observers in 36 constituencies distributed over 22 governorates, however the High Elections Commission agreed to give just 20 permits in 4 governorates (17 permits in Damietta, and one permit in Cairo and Helwan, Giza per each), which there are not any permits for the rest of the requests without explanation of any reasons for this behavior.
