A number of citizens staged a sit-in on Monday outside Beirut’s Justice Palace, to protests against allowing Israeli agent Amer Elias Fakhoury to enter Lebanon, demanding stringent punishment for the former commander of Israeli enemy-linked Khiam prison in the south.
The committee representing the liberated prisoners from Israeli occupation jails had earlier filed a lawsuit against Fakhoury.
Chairman of the Legal Committee of the International Commission on Human Rights, attorney Maen al-Assaad also filed a similar lawsuit on charges of murder of detainees and torture of injured people, as well as hiding bodies of martyrs, living in enemy territories and holding an Israeli passport.
