The state advisory council reinstated a women staff member of the Tripoli municipality

Following the decision of the Tripoli municipality council to sever the contract of the president of the public relations and administration, Nada Elia, on 18 November 2014, the state advisory council presided by Judge Youssef Nasr rescinded this decision and reinstated Elia in her position.  The Council ruled that the Municipal Council abused its power and issued a baseless decision.
To be noted that the Tripoli Municipal Council has no choice but to implement the Council’s decision lest it is subjected for penalties for any delay incurred despite some indications that the ruling will be referred to the Municipal Council and will have grave repercussions given the internal situation within the Municipality.
