Police Arrest Two Suspects in Attempted Kidnap
Police have arrested two people involved in the attempted kidnapping of a Lebanese man in southern Lebanon, the state-run National News Agency reported on Thursday
NNA said that three assailants in an SUV without license plates tried to abduct Nabih Qousan on the main road of al-Tibeh in Marjayoun district.
However, the kidnappers escaped when Qousan's father stopped them from forcing his son into their vehicle, said NNA.
They later approached his house in al-Tibeh and threatened him over the phone.
Qousan had earlier received a message on his phone from a man claiming to be a Liban Post mailman wanting to know his address to deliver him a letter.
But following a thorough investigation, an Internal Security Forces Intelligence patrol arrested H. Nsour from the town of Jebsheet for involvement in the attempted abduction, NNA said.
Another patrol also arrested Aa. Berjawi, who hails from Zebdine.
The detainees will be referred to the Marjayoun police station for questioning, the agency added.
