The powers of the Constitutional Council are limited to affirming the constitutionality of laws only. Yet we find it amending the law on reducing penalties and changing many of its tracks on political grounds and pre-existing stances, overstepping the constitutional prerogative of Parliament to legislate. It has the right to reject the appeal or accept it. But what happened raises many questions!!
