Nohad Machnouk appears before Judge Tarek Bitar, says move shows respect for victims’ families

Former minister Nohad Machnouk left the Beirut Justice Palace Thursday after a hearing with judicial investigator Judge Tarek Bitar, with no legal action taken against him.

Speaking upon his departure, Machnouk said, “A large part of the reason I appeared before the judge is out of respect for the families of the victims and the wounded, who might believe that my absence would be directed against them, rather than a firm stance on adhering to the constitutional process for prosecuting ministers and presidents.”
