The High Authority for Election Monitoring (HIISE) said that parties should change the failed photos or remove the candidates from the vote.
Parties in the northern province of Bordj Bou Arreridj had been showing hijabs surrounding blank spaces in place of photos of female candidates in their campaign posters.

He added that at least five parties had not been showing female candidates' faces on posters.
