Kataeb Students and Youth Department issued the following statement:

Kataeb Students and Youth Department condemns the message of Habib Chartouni, who is a criminal, a terrorist, a fugitive from justice and accused of the death of President Bachir Gemayel, that was read out by journalist Samy Kleyb on Al Jadeed television.

It considers that these irresponsible and unjustified acts deepen the wounds of what remains from the Lebanese judiciary and justice, saying that they turn the assassination of Bachir Gemayel into a mere passing accident.

Although it voices respect over Al Jadeed television but it considers that it is unfortunate that this station allows this terrorist to be proud of his crime.

The Kataeb Students and Youth Department affirms that it will not hestitate to defend its fallen heroes in particular President Bachir Gemayel, noting that it will keep fighting for Lebanon. ‎
