Case summary
On Father's Day, Foreign Minister Gebran Bassil posted a tweet remembering his father. Yara Shuhayeb - a relative of MP Akram Shehayeb - responded to the minister's tweet, saying: "He taught you about theft and looting and thinking about private interests, what education did you raise?" Deputy Akram Shuhayeb received a phone call from Majed Bweiz, the attorney of Minister Gebran Bassil, informing him that the case against the social media activist Yara Shuhayeb had been stopped, who was also informed of this.
