| 2010-10-08 |
| [An Nahar] A delegation from Hizbullah's political bureau on Thursday held talks with Arab Democratic Party leader Ali Eid at his residence in Akkar. The delegation condemned "the recurrent grenade attacks every now and then" in Tripoli's rival neighborhoods of Jabal Mohsen and Bab al-Tabaneh, urging security forces to arrest the perpetrators and publicly reveal their identities. The Hizbullah delegation called for punishing those behind such attacks "to prevent the recurrence of such acts, because Tripoli's security is vital for Leb's security." On the other hand, the delegation called for settling the jurisdiction issue in the false witnesses case, noting that the Lebanese judiciary must become in charge of the case "without any delay, so that they (false witnesses) and those behind them get the punishment they deserve." Eid and Hizbullah's delegation stressed "the need to enhance Lebanese-Syrian relations and complete the implementation of the inked agreements between the two counties." They agreed on maintaining constant communication "in order to face up to any development." |
