A travel ban on Lebanon's central bank governor Riad Salameh was lifted on Thursday by prosecutor Ghada Aoun, the state news agency (NNA) reported.
Salameh is part of a political class widely blamed for Lebanon's unprecedented economic crisis.
He is the target of a series of judicial investigations both at home and abroad on suspicion of fraud, money laundering and illicit enrichment, among other allegations -- including in France where he has been summoned for a hearing on May 16.
Aoun slapped Salameh with the ban in January last year after an activist group filed a lawsuit against the central bank chief, alleging financial misconduct.
