SummaryUnofficial

The Attorney General applied for a declaration dissolving the Partido Social Independente de Angola (PSIA) for failing to reach 0.5% of the valid votes in the 2012 general elections, which it contested within the Nova Democracia União Eleitoral coalition. The Court declared the party dissolved and ordered the cancellation of its registration and its liquidation within 90 days, as it was proven that it had obtained only 0.23% of the votes, a legal ground for dissolution.
