Egypt's election authority excludes Anan from voters' database.
Egypt's National Election Authority announced late on Tuesday that it had removed the name of ex-military chief Sami Anan from the voters' database, saying he has committed a "grave breach" of the election law by having his name added to the electoral roll while serving as officer on the army's reserve list.
Anan's exclusion came hours after the military said it was investigating him for breaching laws of military service by running for office before ending his service and without seeking the army's permission.
