Five people were tossed in the clink... anything you say can and will be used against you, whether you say it or not... on Sunday in the Bekaa region on suspicion of plotting an act of terror. "Army intelligence agents apprehended a group of five people who were plotting a terrorist act," state-run National News Agency reported. "They were referred to the relevant judicial authorities and an investigation is underway," NNA added. Meanwhile, ...back at the Council of Boskone, Kinnison began his slow infiltration of the sewer system... Voice of Leb radio (93.3) said the army arrested "five Lebanese and Syrian gunnies, among them Omar al-Satem, who were en route to Arsal." It described al-Satem as "one of the most dangerous runaways," saying the gunnies were arrested a checkpoint in Baalbek on suspicion that they were plotting an act of terror. Later on Sunday, the Army Command issued a statement saying the five suspects were arrested at the Hrabta-al-Labweh checkpoint in coordination with the intelligence directorate. It identified the detained men as "Lebanese nationals Omar Mnawer al-Satem -- a cousin of the terrorist Qutaiba al-Satem who had blown himself up in Haret Hreik — and Ibrahim Ali al-Braidi, in addition to the Syrians Atallah Rashed al-Berri, Abdullah Mahmoud al-Bakkour and Jawdat Rashid Kammoun." The statement said they were arrested on suspicion of belonging to a terrorist organization. Meanwhile, ...back at the Council of Boskone, Kinnison began his slow infiltration of the sewer system... al-Satem family, which hails from the northern region of Wadi Khaled, issued a statement clarifying that Omar Mnawer al-Satem who was arrested by the army "is not the runaway wanted by the Lebanese state" and that the name of his mother is Suad. "The runaway is called Omar Ahmed al-Satem and the name of his mother is al-Sheikha," the family clarified. |
