Kataeb party chief, MP Samy Gemayel stressed that the journalists have the tight to tell the truth, noting that “today’s events aim at intimidating journalists.”
He added that all the media body has to express solidarity with Marcel Ghanem and LBCI to confirm that the elections will be free.
Speaking from outside the Justice Palace, Gemayel emphasized the trial itself is not dangerous, but the message sent to all journalists “that if they speak out of the line, they will be referred to the judiciary.”
