Saqr Charges Ali Eid, His Driver with Helping Suspect in Tripoli Bombings Evade Justice
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربيةState Commissioner to the Military Court Judge Saqr Saqr charged on Tuesday Arab Democratic Party chief Ali Eid and his driver Ahmed Mohammed Ali with helping a suspect in the Tripoli bombings escape justice, reported the National News Agency.
They were charged with helping suspect Ahmed Merhi flee to Syria.
A search and investigation warrant was issued against former MP Eid on Monday.
Ali is being held by the Intelligence Bureau on charges of smuggling to Merhi to Syria.
Saqr also charged Syrian national Sukeina Ismail with terrorism over her links to the Tripoli twin bombings, said LBCI television.
She is charged with transporting the two cars that were used in the bombings from Syria to Lebanon, it added.
Later on Tuesday, security forces at the Abboudieh border-crossing arrested Chehade Shdoud, who is charged with smuggling Ismail to Syria.
Last week, the Internal Security Forces Intelligence Bureau summoned Eid to question him over his alleged involvement in the August double bombings in the northern city of Tripoli.
MTV reported that Ali was first arrested on October 26 by Lebanese army intelligence agents on charges of smuggling Merhi into Syria at the request of the pro-Damascus former lawmaker.
Merhi is reportedly the driver of the second explosive-laden vehicle that blew up near al-Taqwa mosque.
On October 14, seven people involved in the August bombings were charged, including three in custody. The majority are from the Tripoli neighborhood of Jabal Mohsen.
Forty-five people were killed and over 800 wounded in the twin bombings that targeted the al-Taqwa and al-Salam mosques on August 23.
The Arab Democratic Party has denied any involvement in the attacks and stressed that the suspects are not members of the party while slamming media leaks attributed to the Intelligence Bureau.
how can the army be strong enough with hezbis more armed than them?? the army can and will only be strong if hezbis give them their arms and expertise... why does syria only give arms to hezbis when they have a so-called cooperation with lebanon? LOL
the army will never be strong as hezbollah hypocritically wishes it to stay to justify the BS you are talking about! LOL
Same as they expect us to believe that Nasrallah knew nothing of the plot to kill Hariri, nor did the orders come from Qasem Soleimani, head of the Quds Force that overseas Hezbollah.
I am worried about Saqr from the wrath f Eid, HA, and Bashar (It happened to many before him)
We shouldn't know Mr saqr saqr did this or that, it should just state the person responsible of xyz did xyz.
Lebanon should stop living in the middle ages. Saqr is not a politician.... The same applies to other public functions such LAF, ISF, and so on.
