Following his meeting on Tuesday with former Member of Parliament Hassan Yaqoub, who is contesting the June 7 election, Qassem said: "When the opposition agreed to follow up on the issue of the election outcome as is, and that includes the right to contest, it did so to only to provide the example for making this experience a success."
He went on to add that from a legal point of view the Constitutional Council should do its job "as per the applied legal balances, we want nothing but the law."
