Head of the “Democratic Gathering” parliamentary bloc, MP Taymour Jumblatt, denounced “the authoritarian practices of those who are supposed to advance humanitarian systems and laws over methods of oppression and authoritarian justice that still control some minds towards the families of the victims of the port explosion in particular, who are still waiting for the full truth of their just cause to be revealed and to hold those responsible for this tragedy accountable.”

He said in a statement: “The prolonged measures against William Noun, brother of Martyr Joe Noun, and the reprehensible treatment of Father George Soma and other civilians, confirms the urgent need to conclude this file by achieving absolute justice and not escaping from responsibilities, whatever the results and the extent of the interventions.”

His words came during his meetings with popular delegations who visited him at Al-Mukhtara Palace today to raise their daily-living demands, in the presence of MPs Bilal Abdallah, Hadi Abou Al-Hosn and Wael Abu Faour.
