Egypt military warns Morsi, it 'expects everybody to respect constitution' | Egypt's military council has said the decision to dissolve the country's parliament must
be upheld, and stressed that all state institutions must respect constitutional
declarations. The remark by the Supreme Council of the Armed forces (SCAF) came
after new President Mohammed Morsi issued a decree ordering the country's Islamist-led
parliament to reconvene. According to state-run media, the SCAF, which ruled Egypt
until Morsi's election last month, underlined the 'importance of the constitution
in the light of the latest developments.' Only hours after the top court on Monday
rejected the decree by Morsi to reconvene parliament, the military said it was
'confident that all state institutions would respect constitutional declarations,'
News24 reports. The Supreme Constitutional Court had said certain articles in
the law governing parliamentary elections were invalid, annulling the Islamist-led
house.
