ISF Intelligence Bureau Detains Syrian Allegedly Involved in Tripoli Blasts
Internal Security Forces Intelligence Bureau detained a Syrian national allegedly involved in last year's deadly mosque bombings in the northern city of Tripoli, the state-run National News Agency reported on Tuesday.
The NNA said that the Intelligence Bureau raided the house of 31-year-old Jamil Aziz al-Hassan in the northern region of Anfeh and arrested him.
The suspect was transferred to Beirut for further investigations.
The news agency said that a surveillance camera set at the entrance of his house was confiscated.
NNA reported that al-Hassan has been under the surveillance of the security forces for several month over his fishy ties with wanted fugitives.
LBCI later reported that al-Hassan was released.
Forty-five people were killed and 800 injured in the car bomb blasts that targeted the Sunni al-Taqwa and al-Salam mosques on August 23.
Several suspects have already been charged with forming an armed gang for the purpose of carrying out terrorist activities and bombing the Tripoli mosques.
