Syrian Man, Woman Arrested in Dahieh over 'Security Plot'
[An Nahar] A man and a woman were nabbed... anything you say can and will be used against you, whether you say it or not... on Wednesday evening in Beirut's southern suburbs on charges of plotting an act of sabotage, according to media reports. "A man and a woman, both Syrian nationals, were arrested in Dahieh after the interception of their phone conversations with a group in Majdal Anjar revealed that they were plotting a security operation against Dahieh," a Hizbullah stronghold, al-Jadeed television quoted a security source as saying. MTV said the duo were apprehended by agents from the army's Intelligence Directorate. Hizbullah sources told al-Jadeed that "Dahieh's security is a priority and the army is handling the matter." "Investigations are underway in a normal manner to know more details about the arrested group which was plotting attacks," the sources added. An Egyptian national was killed and two other people were maimed on Sunday when they were setting up bombs in Mount Leb's Iqlim al-Kharroub's region. Several other bombs were found at their house in addition to a map containing three target places for kabooms -- al-Saadiyat, Wadi al-Zeina and Hadath. Posted by: Fred 2013-08-08 |
