Bitar Questions Former Army Chief Qahwaji
The lead investigative judge into the Beirut port blast case, Tarek Bitar, on Monday interrogated former army chief General Jean Qahwaji, who appeared before him as a suspect.
The questioning session was held in the presence of Qahwaji’s lawyer, Antoine Toubia, and the claimant team that represents the families of the victims.
Al-Jadeed TV said Bitar scheduled a new questioning of Qahwaji for September 28.
It added that the claimant team requested that Qahwaji and ex-army intelligence chief Brig. Gen. Camille Daher be interrogated together to determine the responsibility of each of them and in light of “the presence of contradiction between their testimonies.”
