The Daily Star - Kataeb to act after Chartouni interviews, July 26 2012

BEIRUT: Beirut MP Nadim Gemayel promised Wednesday that his party is preparing to act after Habib Chartouni, his father’s self-confessed assassin, recently broke his silence in newspaper and TV interviews. According to the Central News Agency, Gemayel said: “We are not concerned by any action taken by this criminal and there will be future steps” on Chartouni’s case. An interview with Chartouni published in Al-Akhbar newspaper Monday drew condemnations from a number politicians who asked that the state prosecutor question the journalist who conducted the interview. Chartouni spoke to Al-Jadeed TV channel Wednesday via telephone and said the Kataeb Party was paying a heavy price for its acts during the Lebanese Civil War. Various politicians condemned the sit-in that a group of activists called for in solidarity with Chartouni and asked for his arrest.
