An explosive device was found on Friday near a liquor store in southern Lebanon, reported the Central News Agency.
It said that the bomb, located in the town of Qaaqaiyat al-Jisr, was not prepared to be detonated.
An explosives expert from the Internal Security Forces was called to the scene and dismantled the device.
Investigations are underway to uncover the details of the incident and apprehend the people who planted the bomb, said the news agency.
It added that the incident may be a warning to the store owner to halt the selling of liquor in the town.
Similar incidents had taken place near liquor stores in the towns of Bfarweh, where a store owner was previously prevented from selling liquor in the town.
The Central News Agency highlighted another incident, in the town of Kfar Ramman, where unknown assailants tossed a fire bomb at a liquor store owned by Ghaleb Saleh.
The perpetrators remain at large.
The southern town of al-Nabatiyeh had witnessed a successful popular campaign to stop the selling of liquor in the town.

Put cctv cams at every liquor store. put intelligence officers next to each liquor store in the south. Arrest those criminals who try to terrorize people into living like their medieval ways. Judge them and throw them in jail until their arrogance wears off. and throw in jails some mokdads with them...

I'm sick and tired of these fake Muslim fundamentalists. They act all tough yet they carry whiskey bottles under their robes. If Hezbollah was a Muslim militia, they wouldn't act the way they do. They are drugged, they kill, they judge (kofor to be a substitute to God) and they interfere in other peoples lives. They should be banned, not the bottles!

@prime, very good point! The Party of Terror and Intimidation is no more Muslim than I am the queen of England. They are fake hijackers who prey on the fears of the weak, hungry and illiterate by waving the Quran and claiming to be holy warrior. The only thing they are resisting is the will of the people.

The non-Lebanese party of Terror and Intimidation aka HA has nothing to do with Islam. They have hijacked the religion for the purpose of subjugating the minds of the poor and illiterate. This is the only way they can brainwash them and fill their heart with hate. These Iranian servants exist for one purpose and that purpose has nothing to do with the benefit of Lebanon or the wellbeing of its people.
