Judge: Social dialogue about constitution will not benefit society

CAIRO: Calls to hold a social dialogue about Egypt’s draft constitution will not achieve any practical benefits, according to the head of Alexandria’s Court of Appeal, Sameh Abdul Allah, because of calls for boycotting the referendum or for voting “yes.”

Polarization between supporters and opponents of the draft constitution make social dialogue impractical, he said, according to Youm7.
 
The legal said such an atmosphere is not suitable for producing a new constitution, and stressed the need for achieving accordance among the different factions.
