Judge Tarek Bitar, the lead investigator in the Beirut Port blast case, questioned Public Prosecutor at the Court of Cassation Ghassan Khoury in a session that lasted 15 minutes, after which Khoury returned to his office at the Justice Palace.
Former Public Works Minister and current MP Ghazi Zeaiter, along with former Prosecutor General Ghassan Oueidat, remain on the list of accused individuals yet to be interrogated.
Judge Bitar is expected to schedule their questioning before closing the investigation and referring the case to the Public Prosecution for final opinion ahead of issuing the indictment.
