Army Intelligence Arrests Bekaa Fugitive Involved in Killing of Soldier Hatem
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
The Army Intelligence detained on Friday Ibrahim Khanjar, who is involved in opening fire at an army patrol last week in the Bekaa town of Majdal Anjar and killing a soldier and injuring another.
Khanjar is also accused of the abduction of the seven Estonians and killing of army intelligence Maj. Abdo Jasser, his companion First Sgt. Ziad al-Mais and another soldier in Majdal Anjar in 2011.
Last week, 20-year-old soldier Charbel Hatem was killed and Paul Ashqouti was injured after their patrol was targeted with gunshots during a raid in Majdal Anjar to apprehend Wissam Khanjar.
A communique issued by the army pointed out that the patrol arrested “one of the most fugitives in the country.”
The seven Estonians were freed in July 2011, almost four months after being abducted by armed men as they entered the country on a bicycle tour from neighboring Syria.
Their release took place amid unclear circumstances.

Why thumbs down? What should we do just arrest him? We have too many Lebanese takfiri like this that attack our army. These takfiri attack our noble army more than any other group. Hang him if he is guilty!

Thumbs down because there are many on here who do not support the army or the the law or the constitution. Any wonder Lebanon is hurting so much from the presence of so many traitors or anti-Lebanese.
Right on the mark phoenix.
