The estate agency, according to Starrfmonline.com sources ordered the family to vacate the apartment even though they had fully paid their rent.

Speaking to Starrfmonline.com in an interview, the wife of Mr. Rabih, Mona described her experience as chilling.

According to her, the incident occurred around 7am Thursday and that the landlord locked her out when she returned from dropping her child to school.
