Al-Bayda Appeals Court sacks Head of Constitution Drafting Assembly
Al-Bayda Appeals Court, the administrative judiciary department, has delivered a verdict Monday to dismiss the Head of the Constitution Drafting Assembly, Ali Al-Tarhouni.
The verdict was as follows:
First: It is urgent that the High National Election Commission (HNEC) decision (No. 29), which approves Ali Al-Tarhouni a member in the Constitution Drafting Assembly, is partially annulled.
Second: It is urgent that the Constitution Drafting Assembly's decision that approved Ali Al-Tarhouni as the head of the CDA is overruled.
Two members of the Constitution Drafting Assembly, Daw Aun, and Hamdi Yacoub, had formerly filed a suitcase against Al-Tarhouni for being the head of the Constitution Drafting Assembly while having a double citizenship, an American one and the Libyan one, which makes the latter invalid according to the Libyan citizenship law.
