Case summary

The former adviser to the Ministry of Culture, Lynn Tehini, appeared on December 29, 2020, before investigators from the cybercrime bureau. Ms Tehini was the subject of a defamation complaint filed by the ministry’s legal adviser, Judge Walid Jaber. The latter was offended by a post on his Facebook account in which the young woman denounced the laxity and procrastination of the magistrate in the case of the virtuoso, Bassam Saba, director of the National Conservatory, who on the eve of his death, either two years after his appointment as head of the conservatory, still had not received his salary.
