iloubnan - Citizen with human remains in his car arrested - September 08, 2011

Lebanese army intelligence in Nabatyeh detained a citizen from Kafarkela who hid the remains of a human being in his Mercedes car.

According to security reports, the suspect was grabbed by the army as he was personally washing a car that had skull, brain, bones and teeth of a human being.

Investigators revealed that the detained suspect was trying to conceal a crime committed by some person.

Police presume that the human remains were either killed by a traffic accident or was deliberately killed but in both cases the suspect was trying to hide the traces of the crime.

The army said that the detainee gave conflicting stories about the incident.

"The suspect claimed first that he bought the car from a person in Kheyam then he claimed that he purchased the stolen car from Beirut," the army intelligence said.

Investigations also showed that the car was not registered in the name of the suspect.

The father's suspect, according to sources, is an inmate in Romyeh jail charged with counterfeiting currencies with his brother.

The army continued its investigation to unveil the entire truth behind this incident.
