Lebanon's Public Prosecutor at the Court of Cassation, Judge Ahmad Rami el-Hajj, took the oath of office before President of the Republic, General Joseph Aoun, in the presence of Justice Minister Adel Nassar and President of the Higher Judicial Council, Judge Suhail Abboud.
President Aoun said: The judiciary is the fundamental pillar in building the state and preserving its authority, and it is the citizen's ultimate refuge in the pursuit of justice. I stand by the judiciary in everything that serves to protect justice, because there can be no state without a fair judiciary, and no stability without justice.
