Final Amendments to General Amnesty Law
The Lebanese Parliament proposed a general amnesty law that grants forgiveness for crimes committed before March 1, 2026. The law covers all individuals involved in the commission of these crimes, with exceptions for serious offenses such as intentional homicide, terrorism, treason, crimes related to drugs, offenses against public funds, crimes committed by minors, and environmental crimes. The law stipulates the cessation of public prosecution, the annulment of penalties, and the removal of ongoing investigations and judgments. It also includes reductions in the duration of sentences for certain crimes, exemptions from paying fines, and shortened detention periods. The aim is to ease pressure on prisons and ensure swift justice. Additionally, it emphasizes the necessity of implementing an integrated judicial and penitentiary reform plan to uphold rights and improve the judicial system.
