The victim was identified as Ali Al Haq, a Lebanese citizen who left behind a Lebanese flag, a copy of his clear criminal record, and a note that says “I am not a sinner”.
He reportedly shot himself next to Dunkin Donuts, Hamra. The details of the situation are still unknown.
This comes as the economic and social situation in Lebanon worsens, with no relief in sight.
May his soul rest in peace.
