The Military Court postponed the trial session of the artist Fadel Shaker until next May 26, upon the request of his lawyer to submit additional requests, a date that many expect to be decisive in determining the course of the case. During today's session, the court heard the testimony of Walid Al-Bilbisi, Shaker's former companion, who presented his story regarding his departure from the Abra area, coinciding with the outbreak of clashes between Ahmed Al-Assir's group and the army. Al-Bilbisi explained that Shaker was asleep when the confrontations began, before he was woken up and taken to a musical instrument shop to hide until dawn hours. He was later transferred to Ain al-Hilweh camp as the intensity of the clashes subsided. He pointed out that the weapons that were in the possession of the group linked to Shaker were delivered to the army in coordination with the leadership. After hearing the testimony, the military court decided to respond to the request of the defense attorney, lawyer Amata Mubarak, who submitted a request for an additional period to submit new legal memorandums and defences.
