The ambulance carrying the body of Pascal Sleiman arrived at the military hospital in Badaro at 6:30 PM on Tuesday. The corpse underwent an examination as part of the investigation. Earlier in the day, the Lebanese Forces (LF) announced that party-affiliated doctors would also be present during the examination.
Pascal Sleiman's journey back to Lebanon started late in the afternoon after his lifeless body was discovered on the Syrian side of the border with Lebanon. The body, which had been taken to Homs’ governmental hospital, was handed over to the Lebanese Red Cross and repatriated to Lebanese territory early in the afternoon.
Upon arrival in the village of Qaa, a large crowd welcomed the ambulance carrying Sleiman's body with fireworks and rose petals.
Furthermore, in Zahleh, Pascal Sleiman was met with a heartfelt popular welcome and a traditional «zaffe," where hundreds of residents, as well as political figures and supporters of the LF, gathered at the al-Sayde roundabout.
The funeral will take place on Friday at Saint-Georges Church in Jbeil. The religious ceremony will be presided by the Maronite Patriarch, Bechara Rahi.
