Daily Star - Court charges man for insulting Military Tribunal - June 30,2010

BEIRUT: The Court of Publications charged a man Tuesday with slander against the Military Tribunal. The court fined Ahmad Fahed al-Ayoubi LL6 million for slander against the tribunal during a television interview, in which he criticized the tribunal and the way it was prosecuting radical groups. He described the tribunal as “the graveyard of justice” and said it postponed the trials of arrested Islamists. The court considered Ayoubi’s remarks an insult to the tribunal as they undermined its power and the power of its judges. – The Daily Star
