Handing of Telecom Data in Harb’s Attempted-Murder Probe Falls Short
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Opposition MP Butros Harb confirmed Saturday that Telecommunications Minister Nicolas Sehnaoui informed him that the security agencies were delivered the so-called telecom data in the investigation into the assassination attempt against him.
In remarks to An Nahar daily, Harb described as an “achievement” the handing over of the data although security forces said the information was incomplete over the failure of delivering the security agencies what is known as the international mobile subscriber identity (IMSI).
A three-member judicial committee agreed to hand over the data within a small geographic framework, the sources said.
Sehnaoui’s sources in their turn told An Nahar that the telecom minister had promised Harb to hand over the data within the rules and regulations set by the judicial authority.
The sources blamed the committee for refusing to give the all data to the security agencies in other incidents involving attacks on Lebanese personalities.
The March 14 opposition coalition has held the government responsible for the assassination bid on Harb for withholding the telecom data to uncover similar plots.
Harb was the target of a murder attempt on Thursday after residents of a building in which his office is located in the Beirut district of Badaro discovered individuals trying to booby-trap the elevator.
The lawmaker gave security and judicial authorities a 48-hour deadline to uncover the circumstances of the attempt on his life. He is scheduled to hold a press conference on Monday to discuss the incident.
Internal Security Forces chief Maj. Gen. Ashraf Rifi visited Harb at his residence in Hazmieh on Saturday to inform him about the latest developments in the probe.

Hang on Karim.. if this was a rubbish claim by Harb, then there would be no one to answer to the crime, right? so why would the data need to be incomplete?
whether it happened or not, this data being incomplete sets a very dangerous precedence for the future. They know they will be covered by a terrible system.

The news of assassination attempts against Geagea and Harb are rather entertaining. They don't qualify to make a good movie in Hollywood. But I bet they would do a great Egyptian series.

I usually don't like to enter such debates but Karim do you REALLY think geagea is begin the assassination of former PM hariri. I'm just curious about the extent of incoherence of the conspiracy theories that are roaming the country. So I ask with no disrespect or negativity, is that really your belief ?

@Karim: Keep loading up with medicine and drugs for the Alzheimer disease because the drugs are not working yet for you. If your blind eyes and deaf ears keep telling you that the terrorist Syrian regime is your friend then those same senses are telling you that 30yrs of war never existed and the regime that shelled Zahle, Knat, Beirut and Tripoli including Baabda meghaweer massacre was just from a friendly fire and allied regime in Lebanon. Stop lying to yourself because your refusal to take the proper medicine to eliminate the cancerous enemy has cost the Lebanese assassinations after assassinations since Bashir and Mouawad days.

Well it is clearly 'clear' the evil drug lord, also known as his all holiness 'Sheik Hassan Nasrallah' has attempted to shut down any connections to the supposed killing or attempted killing of Mr.Harb. See, Nasrallah, all be but truly known as Iran's little *&(**( boy, had nothing to do with the attempted killing of Harb. Hizbollah doesnt make errors like this. They also don't make errors like Geagea's supposed attempt on his life. People, WAKE UP! Hezbollah invented, heck they own the copyright to the car bomb, they own the copyright to the virgin bride suicide bomber, ya habibti Hezbollah, they 'clearly wrote the book' on how to truly kill someone. Harb, and Geagea, they don't get it. They should have at least 'pretended' to be injured. Its a haram. As a Shiite, married to a Greek Orthodox, we, the true future of whats left of Lebanon, just don't get it.

TA HELL with them all! March 8th, 14th, and all the rest of them! I'd like to invite them all, ALL to a beautiful resort far away from Lebanon, and kill them all. Their is nothing wrong with anyone from any group in Lebanon, its these damned evil politicians and religious leaders. I dare anyone to disagree with that. But, my dare is strictly in a commentators view, not in a disrespectful view. See, Rafic, he was killed by the Israelis, with the green light from George Bush. And car bomb? NO, try an air missle. Nasrallah, he's smart, if, IF he's even in Beirut, hes hiding because he knows the Jews would love to wipe him off the map, and of course the evil bastards would pin it on the Sunni's. LEBANON NEEDS TO WAKE THE HECK up! Take our country back, and try, try to respect each other folks

He was referring to karameh. Rafik Hariri was most likely killed in a joint operation between the syrian intelligence, the mossad and certain individuals from the then lebanese intelligence (who were syrian regime puppets). Also as lebanese, we dont have the right to refer to others as zbeleh because nobody has as much zbeleh as us. This is a sad reality. Over 10 million lebanese live like parasites outside lebanon. Almost every time there is a serious crime in france, australia or northern europe, there is a lebanese behind it. Cocaine dealing, human traficking, terrorism, brutal rapes, murder etc are some of the crimes lebanese expats are professionals at. And im not even gonna mention what lebanese do in lebanon.
