Army Says 'Secret' Investigations Ongoing over Arrest of Terrorist
|
[An Nahar] The Lebanese Army denied on Friday media reports concerning the circumstances that surrounded the arrest of a "terrorist," stressing that investigation are ongoing in a "disclosed manner."
"Secret investigations are ongoing and we are not responsible for any information published regarding the matter," the army said in a communique.
Media reports had said that the "emir" of the Abdullah Azzam Brigades, which claimed it carried out a deadly November 19 double suicide kaboom at Iran's Beirut embassy that killed 25 people, was locked away
Please don't kill me!
by the army intelligence.
The statement said that any alleged reports published in TV stations and newspapers, including al-Akhbar, An Nahar, As Safir and al-Liwaa are fabricated.
"We will hold on to our right to file a lawsuit against any media outlet and any source publishing fabricated and false news concerning the military institutions and its tasks," the statement added.
The group was formed in 2009 and is believed to have branches in both the Arabian Peninsula and Leb.
It has sporadically fired rockets into northern Israel, and the Brigades also grabbed credit for the 2010 bombing attack of a Japanese oil tanker in the Strait of Hormuz.
According to Islamist sites, al-Majed was revealed to be the leader of the Brigades in 2012.
On Wednesday, a Twitter account belonging to Sirajeddin Zreikat, a member of the Brigades, appeared to have been suspended.
Zreikat had grabbed credit in the group's name for the Iranian embassy bombing.
