Algerian opposition candidates challenge election result

The two candidates who ran in Algeria’s presidential race legally challenged the election result on September 10, as reported by The Arab Weekly and agencies.
Islamist Abdellali Hassani Cherif and socialist Youcef Aouchiche filed appeals with Algeria’s Constitutional Court.
They criticized Mohamed Charfi, the President of Algeria’s National Independent Electoral Authority (ANIE), for the way the election results were handled.
