in the coastal city of Alexandria and authorities have started an investigation into the plot.

The inks of the pens will be erased two to four hours after writing and they have been distributed among the voters with the aim of damaging the election process, he said.

After the spread of the rumor, the commission called for distribution of 50,000 pens in 13,000 polling stations, urging the judges of the polling centers to use only indelible ink pens.

Egyptian people are going to the polls for the second and final day of voting on Sunday to choose their president with the Moslem Brüderbund candidate Mohammed Morsi running against former Prime Minister Ahmed Shafiq.
