Syrians Held on Arms Smuggling Charges Referred to Qobbeh Jail

The military investigative judge on Thursday referred Syrian detainees Ammar al-Adib and Mohammed Bashlah to Tripoli’s Qobbeh prison after issuing arrest warrants against them on charges of arms trade and trafficking weapons from Lebanon into Syria, the General Directorate of General Security said.

“Any action the directorate does on the administrative and security levels stems from its keenness on transparency and commitment to laws and instructions,” it said.

“Anyone who wants clarifications about any topic related to the General Security’s work can refer to the complaints office or those directly concerned before launching accusations and publishing or broadcasting baseless information,” the directorate added.
