Based on the recent finding of the Constitutional Court, the EC argues that the MFP is in violation of Section 92 of the organic law on political parties. The section gives the Constitutional Court the power to dissolve any political party that is seen to threaten the constitutional monarchy. The court also said that Mr Pita and the party continued to call for the amendment of Section 112 during election campaigning last year. MFP won the May 14, 2023, general election, getting 14.4 million votes, but was unable to form a coalition government.
