Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri stated that he would not protect anyone involved in the case related to the illegal importation of medications into Lebanon, according to remarks reported on Wednesday by Al-Hadath TV.
This statement comes as investigations continue into a large network smuggling counterfeit medications into the country through Beirut International Airport, bypassing official procedures.
According to information relayed by the Al-Markazia agency, citing the daily An-Nahar, General Security recently questioned and detained an officer whose wife is suspected of playing a central role in the case. The suspect reportedly left Lebanese territory for Georgia before being questioned by investigators.
The case highlights failures in control systems, as questions arise about the circumstances surrounding certain promotions within the security services.
