Qabbani Praises Army, Calls for Referring Suspects to Judiciary
2014-02-14
[An Nahar] Grand Mufti Sheikh Rashid Qabbani lauded on Thursday the Lebanese army in thwarting attempts to destabilize the country by those who aim at inciting sedition and kill innocent people.

"The culprits should be interrogated and referred to the competent judiciary in order for people to feel safe in a stable and secure country," Qabbani said in a statement issued by his press office.

He expressed hope that the army and its leadership would be able to protect Leb amid direct attempts by some local sides to violate its constitution.

On Wednesday, the army announced the arrest of a Paleostinian leader in the Qaeda-linked Abdullah Azzam Brigades
... Leb's current al-Qaeda affiliate, named after a guy whose car the current head of al-Qaeda had boomed...
and seizing two booby-trapped cars in Beirut and the Bekaa.

Naim Abbas is described as the group's number two man in Leb.

The army's endeavors were applauded by all Lebanese officials.
