Supreme Administrative Court ordered Sunday to stop considering state challenge against a former sentence to abolish the Egyptian-Saudi border demarcation deal that handed two strategic islands to the Gulf state. The court also ordered to refer the case to head of the State Council to determine a legal circuit to consider the defense request for judge recusal, judicial sources said. On June 21, Egypt's Administrative Court has cancelled the Egyptian-Saudi deal under which the Red Sea islands of Tiran and Sanafir fall within the Saudi waters. The government appealed the court's verdict.
