Abdul Maseeh Calls for Accountability in Amnesty

The article features Adib Abdel Massih's statements regarding his stance on the general amnesty law in Lebanon. He emphasized the importance of distinguishing between relieving detainees from unjust imprisonment and releasing those who have committed serious crimes, asserting that justice must remain the foundation of any application. He clarified that the law aims to release innocents and the oppressed but cannot encompass individuals involved in grave crimes, stressing that its implementation must ensure justice and exclude major offenders. He also discussed the situation of Lebanese people in Israel, explaining that they should be treated separately from the amnesty law. Some of them left Lebanon for security reasons, and their return should be handled with legal guarantees. Abdel Massih underscored the significance of addressing the issue of missing persons, highlighting the need to prioritize uncovering their fate. He pointed to a special law enacted in 2018 concerning the rights of families of missing persons, emphasizing that their rights transcend political and sectarian divisions. Furthermore, Abdel Massih reaffirmed the importance of respecting media freedom, expressing concern over Article 104 of the media law, which imposes prison penalties for spreading false news, and called for its amendment. He believes that the disagreement between the Prime Minister and the Deputy Minister of Defense will soon be resolved. Throughout, he emphasized that priorities should always focus on humanitarian and national issues, in adherence to the constitution and respect for institutions.
