Minister of Information, Melhem Riachy

Minister of Information, Melhem Riachy, indicated on Wednesday that he would tackle yesterday's attack on al-Jadeed TV building during the Cabinet session. 


"Yesterday, I did what any minister would have, were he in my position. I contacted all the concerned sides to mitigate the tension," Riachy told an interview on al-Jadeed channel. 


Amal Movement fans rallied last night outside al-Jadeed building, in protest at a show episode where Imam Moussa Sadr was mentioned. Protesters attempted to break into the premises and hurled stones. Source :NNA
"There cannot be any compromise; the expression of opinion is legal, but attack is totally refused," Riachy said, vowing measures in the nearest time possible.
