Violence against women: father molests three daughters, girl kidnapped in Baalbak, blackmailer in Tyre

22-7-2019

The Criminal Court of Mount Lebanon headed by Judge Elie Hilou, sentenced last week a father to 8 years in prison on charges of molesting his three daughters after forcing them to watch porn movies when they were under 15. Meanwhile, local media brought up on July 19 the news of kidnapping of the girl R.J.G from in front of her workplace in Dorus, Baalbaq. Immediately after, the girl’s family staged a sit in at Khalil Motran Square in the Beqaa city in protest, demanding the government to take action and bring back their daughter safely home. On the other hand, a patrol from the Southern Investigation Unit in Tyre, arrested on July 14 the suspect R.M (Lebanese, born in 1987) who blackmailed girls threatening to publish their pictures and videos in which they appear nude. The assaulter was handed over to Tyre Gendarmerie Station for legal action. (L’Orient Le Jour, Al Mustaqbal, July 14, 20, 2019)
