Sadat Calls for Army to Protect Second Round of Elections

Mr. Anwar Esmat el Sadat sent a formal letter to the President of the Supreme Committee for Elections, Mr. Abdul Aziz Omar, demanding that he call on the army to protect the polling stations from the bullying and fraud committed by police and NDP supporters. Calling on the army to protect polling stations is supported by Article No. 26, Act No. 73, of 1956, Regulating the Exercise of Political Rights, which states that Mr. Chancellor/President of the Electoral Commission has the right to request military force (armed forces) when necessary. Moreover, the law states that forces cannot be directly inside the polling station unless absolutely necessary and called upon by the President of the Commission. Instead, forces must be in the periphery of the polling station, outside of it, to ensure safety and wellbeing of the voters.
