Rural figure escalates Lebanon debate

Deputy Ashraf Rifi raised his voice once again regarding the Lebanese prison crisis, warning that overcrowding, lengthy detention without trial, and slow judicial procedures have become a humanitarian disaster and a national threat. He called for the swift implementation of the general amnesty law approved by the Parliament, considering immediate enforcement essential to address the crisis. This crisis reflects significant pressure on the prison infrastructure due to the rising number of detainees, reaching around 8,600 inmates compared to a capacity of between 3,500 and 4,000, amid worsening prison conditions and an accumulation of detentions without trials. He emphasized that this law is just a first step, which must be followed by judicial and legislative reforms to address the root causes, expedite trials, and put an end to arbitrary detention. Rifi also urged the executive authorities and the Ministry of Justice to take responsibility to end the ongoing humanitarian and security crisis.
