The Supreme Administrative Court, headed by Judge Magdy al-Agati, deputy chairman of State’s council, adjourned the verdict of the two challenges of Mahmud Nafadi, deputy chief editor of Al-Jumhuriyah newspaper, which call for canceling the Administrative Judiciary court’s verdict of supporting the Shura council decision. The decision concerns opening the nomination for chief of editors’ posts; starting from next October.
