| [An Nahar] The General Directorate of General Security on Monday circulated the pictures of two suspects accused of forming a "terrorist network" that was allegedly plotting to detonate the car bomb that was discovered Saturday in Naameh. "An Audi car containing 250 kilograms of explosives was seized in the Naameh area on August 17," the directorate confirmed in a statement. "Lebanese national T. B. T. and the Paleostinians A. H. S., aka Abu Youssef, and his brother Kh. H. S. are being held at the directorate on charges of forming a terrorist network, conducting acts of sabotage in the country, and plotting to stage a kaboom through the seized car," it added. The directorate said the rest of the network's members are on the run, identifying two of them as "Lebanese national Mohammed Qassem al-Ahmed, born in Beirut in 1983 and a resident of Haret al-Naameh, and Lebanese national Saeed Mohammed Bahri, born in Beirut in 1985 and a resident of Dawhat Aramoun." The General Security circulated pictures of the two men, urging all citizens who spot them to report to the nearest General Security post or dial 01/612401. It promised that the identities of those who submit information will remain confidential. On Saturday, a car filled with 250 kilograms of explosives was discovered near the municipality building in Naameh. The car carried a fake license plate and contained five boxes of TNT, an unidentified explosive substance, fuses and a device for remote detonation. Security information revealed on Monday that some members of the boom-mobileing ring tossed in the clink Drop the rod and step away witcher hands up! on Sunday are supporters of Islamist holy man Ahmed al-Asir, according to the As Safir daily. Later on Monday, Asir himself, on the run since the deadly Abra battle, appeared in an audio recording in which he said that the bombing that hit the Beirut southern suburb of Ruwais on Thursday was a "normal result" of Hizbullah's military intervention in Syria. |
