A popular celebration is currently taking place at the Saasine Square in Ashrafieh, at the invitation of MP Nadim Gemayel in the wake of the release of the Judicial Council's verdict in the case of the 1982 assassination of President-elect Bashir Gemayel and his companions.
The festive ceremony takes place in the presence of Minister of Social Affairs Pierre Bou Assi, representing the Lebanese Forces Leader, Samir Geagea, State Minister for Women Affairs, Jean Ogasabian, Minister of State for Planning, Michel Pharoun, and scores of Kataeb and LF partisans and supporters.
The pictures of martyr President-elect and the Lebanese, LF and Kataeb flags were hoisted in the area, with banners raised welcoming the release of the verdict.
The Internal Security Forces closed the surrounding roads and tightened security measures in and around the festival.
Afterwards, Bachir Gemayel's family shall head to the town of Bekfaya, where they will place the verdict against Habib Chartouni and Nabil Alam on the tomb of the martyr President
