| [An Nahar] A new audio recording was circulated online on Thursday where one of the leaders of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) threatens Caretaker Interior Minister Marwan Charbel. According to LBCI, the threats were made over statements by Charbel concerning the bad boy group. "We are coming to Leb," he said, describing Charbel as the "enemy of Allah." "We will sacrifice him," the leader said. The 45-second voice recording was broadcast by LBCI. The channel didn't clarify how it received the voice recording. Earlier on Thursday, al-Joumhouria newspaper reported that the competent security agencies uncovered the identity of the person who was behind the video threatening Charbel. A security source rejected to unveil the name of the culprit until he is brought to justice, noting that a permission was granted to pursue him on charges of destabilizing civil peace in the northern city of Tripoli ...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn... ,incitement and sedition. On Tuesday, LBCI aired a one-minute video for an unknown man threatening Charbel over a statement he issued that "if the farce in Tripoli didn't end then the army is ready to engage in another battle like the one in Nahr al-Bared." "I've heard so many threats in my life... May god forgive him," Charbel told the newspaper. He pointed out the security forces are carrying out investigations to "deal with this phenomena." |
