Now Lebanon - Adwan fires back at Franjieh - September 24, 2010

Lebanese Forces bloc MP George Adwan told LBCI television on Friday that Justice Minister Ibrahim Najjar “respects himself enough to carry out his convictions.”

The LF MP responded to Marada Movement leader MP Sleiman Franjieh’s Thursday statement that Adwan asked Najjar – who represents the LF in the cabinet – to summon former General Security chief Jamil as-Sayyed for questioning.

Sayyed, who had returned from France, was summoned by Attorney General Judge Said Mirza following the former’s September 12 statement, in which he attacked Prime Minister Saad Hariri.

“Everyone knows that when Najjar assumed his post, he became a minister for all Lebanese. There was no interference in the judiciary’s work at any time,” Adwan said.
