23-2-2018
The Military Court of Cessation headed by Judge Toni Latouf, pronounced its ruling yesterday in the case of the murder of Eliane Saftali by a former sergeant sentencing him to 12-year imprisonment. Saftali was killed on the night of January 12, 2015 following a shooting at a nightclub in Kaslik, East Beirut by Hassan Hamiyeh, who managed to escape prison. The First Military Investigative Judge, Riad Abu Ghida had earlier issued an accusatory verdict sustaining Hamiyeh’s act as a felony of wrongful death according to Article 550 of the Penal Code. The article states that “anyone who takes the life of another person by negligence or lack of precaution or observance of laws and regulations in effect is punished with 6 months up to 3 years imprisonment.” (Al Mustaqbal, February 23, 2018)
