CAIRO - A top adviser to President Hosni Mubarak insisted Egypt will not allow international observers to monitor the country’s first multi-candidate election next month, reports said on Saturday.

“Egypt is not under the mandate (of other countries) to accept foreign observers to supervise its presidential election,” adviser Osama Al Baz told reporters in the Mediterranean city of Alexandria.
