Now Lebanon - Detained Lebanese shepherd released by Syrian army - June 12, 2011

NOW Lebanon’s correspondent reported on Sunday that the Lebanese shepherd who went missing early on in the day after an incident with the Syrian army, was detained by the Syrian security forces.
The intelligence branch of the Lebanese army contacted its Syrian counterpart and gained a pledge to release the shepherd later on in the day along with his flock, the report added.
The correspondent reported earlier on in the day that the Syrian army shot at two Lebanese shepherds in the border town of Kfarzabad.
The Syrian government is engaged in a deadly crackdown on protesters who since March have been demanding the end of 48 years of rule by the Baath party, which is controlled by Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
