Al-Hashemi: Man faces extortion over bills
The article discussed the suffering of Lebanese citizens from the exploitation by electricity generator owners, where they pay two bills for a single service and face extortion through illegal fees under the guise of maintenance or network charges, despite the government setting official prices for electricity in various regions. Deputy Bilal Al-Hashimi called on the government to issue a binding decision that enforces the use of meters and official pricing, and to prevent additional fees, holding violators legally accountable and revoking their licenses. He also demanded the establishment of a joint operations room to monitor violations and expose perpetrators, emphasizing that encroachment on citizens' rights to electricity is a form of exploitation that must be addressed seriously.
