The judiciary is flooded with lawsuits in an attempt to paralyze the work of Beirut Blast judicial investigator Judge Tarek Bitar.

This policy is being pursued by former Prime Minister Hassan Diab and former ministers Nouhad el-Machnouk, Ali Hassan Khalil, Ghazi Zeaiter and Youssef Fenianos, which has led so far to the filing of eleven lawsuits against Judge Bitar, some of which have been preserved or rejected, and some of which have yet to be decided.
