Egyptian Opposition Group to Boycott Runoff Vote
------------------------------------------------



Egypt’s largest opposition group has withdrawn from a second round of
elections after accusing the ruling party of manipulating results to
ensure a sweeping victory. The Muslim Brotherhood said it would not take
part in Sunday’s runoff vote in protest of alleged intimidation and
ballot stuffing by supporters of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak in the
first round.
