By \u201ccutting\u201d the facts and questioning his financial and professional liabilities in a way that contradicts the rules of journalistic honor, contradicts reality, and tramples logic.<\/div>\n<div>I am here presenting an impartial \u201cprofessional\u201d and human rights testimony about facts and practices that I was a part of a year ago, specifically in conjunction with the last parliamentary elections, facts that reveal indications that contradict those that the promoters of the unjust campaign against the man tried to establish.<\/div>\n<div>In the last quarter of 2015, and through my role as responsible for \u201cPartners for Transparency,\u201d we implemented the first initiative of its kind in Egypt to monitor electoral financing and spending under the slogan \u201cOur Voices Against Your Money\u201d. At that time we were seeking to monitor the extent of political money&#039;s impact on the electoral process. In Egypt, a serious contribution to achieving an electoral atmosphere is closer to expressing the will of the voters.<\/div>\n<div>In view of the lack of funding allocated for the initiative, and at the same time we as a team were keen to adhere to the highest levels of methodology, the opinion was settled that the monitoring process should cover only five electoral districts at the level of the republic, through which we present a model that can be circulated in the upcoming elections, and among these five constituencies was Muharram. Bek in the Alexandria governorate, which is now represented by MP Haitham Hariri, the son of the great leftist militant Abu al-Ezz al-Hariri, and a member of the 25-30 bloc, and the subject of cheap accusations from some media outlets whose respect has been bleeding for years without a single sane move to stop the bleeding.<\/div>\n<div>At that time, we were relying on a set of communicative tools to access information related to the candidate&#039;s funding sources, the size of this funding, the spending items, and the extent of his commitment to the legal rules contained in the Law on Exercising Political Rights, Parliament, as well as monitoring the candidate&#039;s own commitment to the rules of transparency, disclosure and announcement of his bank account, sources of financing His campaign, and the extent of his keenness to provide statements to followers and observers.<\/div>\n<div>At the time, our campaign received very great media attention, and large areas of media coverage were allocated to it on many platforms, including the seventh day, the parliamentarian and the Al-Nahar channel.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0Based on field evidence and facts that I was close to and responsible for managing it, I say with a clear conscience that Haitham Hariri was the only candidate who announced his bank account and campaign financing sources within his constituency, and he was one of the few candidates who adhered to the legal rules for electoral financing and spending, and he was keen on transparency, disclosure and response. To request information from followers, and was the least expensive of its competitors.<\/div>\n<div>Haitham al-Hariri used to stand in front of many candidates who have money and spend it generously in crude propaganda, buying votes, and paying disguised and convincing electoral bribes. However, the majority of voters gave their votes to Haitham to represent them under the dome of parliament and withheld their confidence from others, so do seventh-day officials believe that these voters Will they believe the petition \u201cDo not come close to prayer\u201d published on the seventh day, trying to \u201cattach\u201d the accusation of corruption and abuse of influence with their deputy?<\/div>\n<div>Haytham Hariri succeeded in the &quot;legitimate&quot; people&#039;s votes, although he could not be included in the list of an organization supported by the state, and there were no businessmen behind him spending his campaign and waiting for the price under the dome, and he was not affiliated with a religious group from the right or a &quot;anarchist&quot; group on the left, and the difference with the positions Haitham&#039;s convictions never justify going beyond these facts, and resting on the impact of canned lies.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><strong>General Manager, Partners for Transparency<\/strong><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"field field-name-post-date field-type-ds field-label-hidden\">\n<div class=\"field-items\">\n<div class=\"field-item even\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"field field-name-field-news-section field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-hidden\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The beginning Sunday, November 6, 2016 - 21:44 Hariri was the least spending among his district\u2019s candidates and the only one who announced the financial details of his campaign.
