I am not understanding.  You do not believe that what they have is a
constitution?  Or you don't believe the written transitional constitution
has been signed?  Or you simply think the transitional constitution is
valid?  I am afraid that I am unsure of what you meant by, "The misuse of
the word constitution here is an example of currently evolved 
low journalistic standards where one writer accepts the usage of another 
writer without verification."
