Now Lebanon - Hezbollah expresses concern over Roumieh torture reports - June 28, 2011

Hezbollah issued a statement on Tuesday voicing it concern over the reports of alleged torture against inmates at Lebanon’s Roumieh Prison.
The party condemns “any unethical or inhumane practice at Roumieh Prison,” the statement said.
