Palestinian Authority official quits to help Abbas
Palestinian Authority secretary general Tayeb Abdel Rahim said Saturday he was resigning to run the election campaign of PLO leader Mahmud Abbas, standing for the organisation's presidency, officials said. Under Palestinian law, Abdel Rahim cannot keep his official position while being involved in campaigning for the election, scheduled for January 9.
Paleo "law"?
Campaigning begins on December 25. Abdel Rahim's resignation will come into effect 24 hours earlier.
