Military justice legislation in Egypt

There's new legislation governing Egypt's military courts. Excerpt from this AhramOnline report:

The most prominent amendments include adding a level of jurisdiction, namely the Military Court for Appellate Crimes.

The levels of military courts now comprise the Supreme Military Court for Appeals, the Military Court for Appellate Crimes, the Military Court for Crimes, the Military Court for Appellate Misdemeanors, and the Military Court for Misdemeanors.

Their jurisdiction was specified in handling lawsuits and disputes brought to them according to the law. 

The president of the Military Judiciary Council was given the authority to organize the chambers of the Supreme Military Court for Appeals, and the director of military courts was given the authority to organize the chambers of the other military courts.
