Episode Details

Developer Jean Nassif, on videolink from Beirut, faces a corruption probe after admitting to paying lobbyists—allegedly tied to the Reformers faction—to sway development approvals for his company Toplace. While denying any wrongdoing and claiming he’s only accountable to God and his parents, Nassif erupted during testimony, shouting at the commissioner and threatening to quit cooperating. He also viciously attacked a former official who halted one of his projects, calling him a “racist dictator.” A fugitive wanted for fraud since 2022, Nassif’s defiant behavior underscores the explosive tensions swirling around this high-stakes inquiry.
