Legal experts expressed different points of view over whether Salim Hoss could be impeached for letting Michel Murr sign authorizations for death sentences. Hassan Rifai, a lawyer and former MP, said that if the premier refused to sign a decree, he could be impeached by the Cabinet under Article 70 of the Constitution. "The only solution right now is to issue another decree signed by the premier that would annul the current faulty decree," Rifai said.
