2^min

Grand Mufti of the Lebanese Republic Sheikh Abdellatif Derian received at Dar al-Fatwa former PM Hassan Diab and they discussed the latest developments on the Lebanese scene.

The media office of Dar al-Fatwa confirmed in a statement that "the position of Mufti Derian regarding the investigations into the Beirut port explosion remains unchanged: Either lifting the immunities off all officials without exception or adopting the constitutional and legal mechanisms in force in the Supreme Council for the Trial of Presidents and Ministers."

"Mufti Derian expressed his keenness to achieve justice, and to take into account that former PM Hassan Diab can only be subject to the Supreme Council for the trial of presidents and ministers, according to what the Lebanese Constitution stipulates. We cannot be satisfied with anything else, unless the parliament approves otherwise," the statement added.
