Lebanese public prosecutor Ghada Aoun charged Wednesday, husband of prominent singer Nancy Ajram Dr. Fadi El-Hachem with "intentional murder”, after shooting a man who he claimed was armed when he broke into their home and threatened the family.

Dr. El Hachem was initially detained by authorities but later released after reviewing the surveillance cameras and evidence, confirming that what the latter had done a legitimate act of self-defense.

He, after that, was taken to Al-Hayat Hospital for treatment amid concerns for his mental health after the fatal shooting of a 30-year-old robber.

Ajram sustained a minor injury in her right leg, but the other family members were safe.

It is worth mentioning that, last Sunday, a number of newspapers and websites claimed that El Hachem has been arrested after the investigation found him guilty of manipulating the break-in footage, which went viral on social media platforms, showing the attacker pointing his gun and shooting at him.

Then the footage cut to the assailant making his way to one of the rooms in the house only to be met with the doctor, who chases after the intruder, named Mohammed Hassan Al Moussa before shooting him.

The Lebanese MTV satellite channel revealed what has happened inside Nancy’s house that the intruder was holding one of Ajram’s handbags, asking for money. The doctor complied, giving him cash from his jacket, but then Al Moussa asked: “Where is the gold? Don’t make me hurt you. Call your wife.”
