Gabi Jormanos, the lawyer of Fadi Mikhael Al-Hashem, the artist’s husband, Nancy Ajram, who pleaded guilty to the crime of article 547 (intentional homicide), complying with article 228 of the Penal Code, which establishes the condition of legitimate defense, told the court’s decision to ET Arab, saying: “They were awaiting a conditional self-defense trial, but it came with a 20-year sentence for a second article prohibiting punishment, and legally the two sentences lead to the same result, that it is not punishment, and if we read the article with which the decision is subject, it corresponds to what Fadi said in the investigations.
Article 547 establishes that: “Anyone who intentionally kills a person will be punished with forced labor for fifteen to twenty years, the penalty will be twenty to twenty-five years if the act of murder is committed by one of the spouses against the other.”
On Tuesday, the first investigating judge in Mount Lebanon, Nicolas Mansour, issued his indictment against Fadi Mikhael Al-Hashem, who pleaded guilty to the crime of article 547 (intentional homicide), in compliance with article 228 of the Penal Code, that stipulates the statute of legitimate defense, provided that it returns to the Court of First Instance. On this point, the decision was referred to the Prosecution Division in Mount Lebanon.
Reports indicated that the investigating judge convicted Al-Hashem of the crime of murder and the file was transferred to the Criminal Court.
