Biography
Habib Tanious Shartouni (Arabic: ØبÙب اÙشرتÙÙÙ; born 24 April 1958) is a Lebanese militant and convicted assassin of Bachir Gemayel, the Lebanese president and leader of the Lebanese Forces, on 14 September 1982. A member of the Syrian Social Nationalist Party (SSNP), Shartouni placed a bomb in the Kataeb Party headquarters in Beirut, where Gemayel was meeting with party members. His motive was in his opposition to Gemayel's policies, which were seen at the time as aligned with Israel, which was viewed as against Arab interests. Shartouni spent eight years in Roumieh Prison without a trial. He escaped to Syria during the Syrian offensive in 1990, where he lived for several years. In 2017, he was sentenced to death in absentia by Lebanon's Judicial Council. His whereabouts today remain a mystery, but rumors persist that he has found refuge in Syria, while others suggest he is hiding in Lebanon under Hezbollah's protection, or that he lives between both countries.
