The Ministry of Interior in a statement apologizes for the unfortunate incident of a letter sent to a dead person for registration in the electoral register.
As it says, following a report about a letter sent to a dead person for registration on the electoral roll, the Department of Population and Immigration Records of the Ministry of Interior expresses its regret and apology, explaining that the unfortunate incident was due to a weakness in the system in operation since 2000, which did not provide for adequate recording of all data, including the date of death.
As a result, it added, during the recent mailing of 29,563 letters as part of the campaign to register on the electoral roll to citizens aged 18-25, ten similar incidents were identified.
The Ministry of Interior apologises for the unfortunate incident and assures that appropriate action has already been taken to ensure that no similar incident is repeated in the future.
