The campaign of presidential contender Abdel-Moneim Abul Fotouh, a former leading figure in the Muslim Brotherhood, presented a legal memorandum to the Supreme Presidential Election Commission (SPEC) on Monday requesting that legal measures be taken in response to violations that occurred in the Egypt Consulate in Saudi Arabia.
The campaign's statement came after they reportedly saw that several voting applications via post and national ID cards appeared to be written in same handwriting.
The press release issued by the campaign requests that SPEC investigates the issue and transfers violators to prosecution as well as take all legal measures so that fraud does not threaten the integrity of the elections and the will of the people.
