Local Editor

A Hezbollah delegation visited Tuesday each of Lebanese Minister of Justice Shakib Qartbawi and Attorney General Judge Said Mirza. The delegation that included Loyalty to the Resistance bloc MP Nawwar Al-Sahili and Head of the Coordination and Liaison Committee in Hezbollah Wafiq Safa made the visit after both Qartbawi and Mirza condemned the decision that was issued by head of the Military Court of Cassation, Judge Alice Shebtini to release the six Israeli spies. After the visits, MP Al-Sahili made a statement from the Parliament in which he assured that Shebtini’s decision was a major mistake and an unaccepted exception. “Even more, some of the released prisoners have committed other crimes including drug crimes… and some of them were sentenced for the second time, in other words, they were sentenced in 2000, they served their terms, worked with the enemy, and then got sentenced again… Some of them have been in prison for one or two years only” MP Al-Sahili pointed out in his press conference. “In law there is something called Raison D’etat, that is when the judge handles a case, he should consider the higher national interest… he should consider the outcome of releasing people who damaged Lebanon, worked with the enemy of Lebanon, helped the enemy kill the Lebanese and gave it information to strike locations in all Lebanon,” he added. Judge Shebtini ordered the release of agents Fawzi and Said Al-Alam who were sentenced to 15 years of hard labor for dealing with the enemy, and the two brothers Elie and Youssef Al-Alam who were sentenced to 10 years of hard labor for the same crime after an Israeli mobile, advanced cameras, videos, and pictures of some locations for the resistance were found in the latter’s house. The four agents from the same family were operated by the fifth fugitive agent Nemer Al-Alam. The other two are Youssef Maroun Addoushi and Emile Hannah Bou Safi. Shebtini claimed that she issued this order because the agents were “sick”.
