| [An Nahar] Lebanese men from al-Tufayli family kidnapped eight Syrians in retaliation for the capture of their next of kin in the eastern city of Baalbek, they claimed in a statement released late Wednesday. "After Faisal Haidar al-Maarrawi from the Syrian town of al-Maarra and his brother Rifaat along with their gang kidnapped our son Mohammed Medhat al-Tufayli, several young men from the family kidnapped eight Haidar members," said the statement. Al-Tufayli was kidnapped at noon Wednesday in the outskirts of the town of Nahle, said the state-run National News Agency. The eight Syrians were later kidnapped while working in livestock grazing in Nahle, it said. Among them were Khaled Haidar, his brother Ahmed, Hussein Haidar, and Mohammed Darwish. |
