The
head of the Editors' Syndicate Melhem Karam visited
Samir Geagea, head of the dismantled Lebanese Forces,
at his Defense Ministry prison on Monday morning.
After the visit, Karam told Naharnet that Geagea is
in good health and gave him a letter to deliver to President
Emile Lahoud.
In
the letter, Geagea calls on Lahoud to pursue the national
unity by adopting an addendum to the 1991 amnesty
law that should have been global.
On
the other hand, Karam said Geagea explained the hard
conditions of his incarceration saying that a special
amnesty law does not serve anything for the time being.
He
added that what is needed is a global pardon from
which all those who were excluded from the 1991 pardon
law could benefit.
