The Internal Security Forces Intelligence Branch is interrogating eight members of the Regional Drug Control Office in the Bekaa for using their arms for celebratory gunfire, al-Akhbar daily reported on Wednesday.
The newspaper said the eight officers used their guns to fire in the air during the wedding of the bureau's chief, Captain Bassel Nasser, at Hotel Massabki in the Bekaa town of Chtaura.
The Intelligence Branch first summoned three officers who admitted to using their police guns during the celebration. They were arrested based on orders from the state commissioner to the military court.
The three men admitted that five other colleagues participated in the celebratory gunfire. The five officers are now being questioned by the Intelligence Branch and could be arrested too, al-Akhbar said.
