In the same late-evening run of 22 August, Al-Ahad TV (AAH — official) carried Sadiqoun MP Salem al-Absaoui saying that most members of the parliamentary Security Committee failed to attend the session convened for Falih al-Fayyad's appearance, and that some of them were prevented from attending by their own parliamentary blocs. The MP named no bloc. The claim appears on one channel only in the collected window and is not corroborated elsewhere in the material.

“MP Salem al-Absaoui on the session for Fayyad's attendance: most Security Committee members did not attend; some were prevented by their blocs!!”
النائب سالم العبساوي عن جلسة حضور الفياض: أغلب نواب لجنة الأمن لم يحضروا .. بعضهم منعوا من قبل كتلهم !!
The claim identifies resistance to the Fayyad hearing coming from within parliament rather than from the government or an outside actor, which places the accountability push on one side of an intra-bloc split rather than on a common front.
