Rape and Robbery on Zahle Highway

Two men raped a 32-year-old Lebanese woman in the eastern city of Zahle after assaulting her male companion and stealing LL1.5 million from them, the National News Agency reported Thursday.

NNA said that four men in a BMW with tinted windows intercepted the victims identified with their initials as K.T., 32, and J.D., who were in their Toyota on the Zahle highway, at around 1:30 am.

Two of the assailants took K.T. and J.D to an area nearby, robbed them of LL1.5 million after assaulting them, and then raped the woman.

The other two robbers took their vehicle to an unknown location, the agency said.

After the suspects made their escape, the victims went on foot to the al-Maalaqa-Zahle police station and informed security forces about the incident, it added.
