[An Nahar] Justice Minister Ashraf Rifi confirmed on Thursday receiving two Syrian legal notices against Progressive Socialist Party leader MP Walid WallyJumblat ... ![]() and journalist Fares Khashan. LBCI television reported on Thursday afternoon that Rifi has confirmed receiving the notices from the Criminal Court of the Syrian city of Lattakia. These warrants were issued against Jumblat and Khashan for "undermining the Syrian state's authority." "The Syrian embassy handed the two notices to the Lebanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which then sent them to the Justice Ministry," Rifi said. He also expressed that he was "surprised by these notices." "We were particularly surprised because the amnesty ruling issued by the Syrian regime in 2013 included these accusations," he explained. "I am currently examining these notices," LBCI quoted the Justice Minister as saying. However, a woman is only as old as she admits... the Foreign Ministry denied receiving any of the two warrants, according to the same source. "The PSP also said it had no former idea about these notices," LBCI added. |
