Party Leader denounces vote rigging in Algeria

The labor party leader Louiza Hennoun staunchly denounced the outcome of the last presidential elections qualifying the practices as mere Stalinist ones adding that she will not keep silent and the riggers must be punished.

•  
• Taking the floor before journalists at the International Press Center here in Algiers, she declared that what happened was well planned, but didn’t incriminate the president Abdelaziz Bouteflika and the interior minister Noureddine Yazid Zerhouni.
•  
• Louiza Hanoun went on saying that the turnout was important but the 74% participation rate advanced by the authorities was impossible to reach, adding that these estimates only occur in the “Bananas” nations.
•  
• She also declared that it was more realistic to give the score of 60 or 65% to the candidate Abdelaziz Bouteflika adding that the 90% was a set back to the democratic process.
•  
• Louiza Henoun further declared that the Byelorussia is the only remaining country which still accepts such scores because it’s the latest Stalinist country in the 21st century.
•  
• As to her own score in these elections, she replied that she actually garnered no less than 30% , but what happened was a violation to the consciousness.
