Parliament passed Wednesday a draft law facilitating the return of Lebanese who fled to Israel in the wake of its withdrawal from south Lebanon in May 2000.
Under the urgent draft law, which was submitted by MPs from Michel Aoun’s Free Patriotic Movement, Lebanese who joined the South Lebanon Army militia or collaborated with it will be arrested by Lebanese authorities on the border upon their return and tried under Lebanese law.
As for their families and other Lebanese who left for Israel, an amendment to the bill allows them to return under certain mechanisms and regulations to be stipulated later in decrees issued by the Cabinet.
