The Presidency of the Council of Ministers’ Press Office issued on Monday the following statement:
"Al-Akhbar newspaper reported that caretaker Prime Minister, Hassan Diab, had requested consulting the Ministry of Justice’s Committee of Legislation and Consultations to express an opinion on the request for permission to prosecute the Director-General of State Security, Major General Antoine Saliba.
