Al-Sadiq: There is a political decision not to release the prisoner
Fady Mahouly
Representative Waddah Al-Sadiq wrote on “X”: “In all frankness and clarity, there is a political decision not to release Ahmed Al-Assir and a number of his companions from prison, regardless of whether his trial was invalid or valid. The twisting and turning and the attempt to pass a sentence in another law that undermines the amnesty law is as clear as the sun, and we are not unaware of it. The previous military court was invalid, worked in the party’s favor, and harmed its Lebanese opponents, and it Every decision it issued is questionable, especially since one of its leaders was one of the most fanatical, sectarian, and hateful towards others, as evidenced by his media appearances and seditious stances. The fact that any oppressed person remains in prison is a disgrace to everyone who has the decision-making power, and to everyone who obstructs him.”
