Lebanon arrests 2 brothers for spying
2009-06-08
[Iran Press TV Latest] Lebanese security forces have arrested two brothers on suspicion of spying for Israel amid anti-espionage campaign in the country.

The brothers were arrested Sunday in Rmeich village of the Nabatiye Governorate in southern Lebanon, Xinhua reported.

They are said to be relatives of a retired senior police officer named Emaad Al-Alam, who was arrested on April 10 over accusations of leading a spying network for Israel.

According to the Lebanese police, computers, equipment and documents of their communication with Israel were found in their house.

So far, Lebanon has charged at least 55 people for spying and has arrested almost 100 others on suspicion of espionage since it launched a major crackdown on spy networks almost two months ago.

I just wonder if they really caught, "Spies" or are settling scores?
