Now Lebanon - Mirza addresses case of Sehnaoui’s “storming” of Ogero building, September 26, 2011

Attorney General Judge Said Mirza told Future News television on Monday that his office is addressing the case “in which Telecommunications Minister Nicolas Sehnaoui stormed Ogero’s building in Adlieh.”Sehnaoui on Friday seized control of the second floor of a building owned by his ministry in Beirut’s Adlieh neighborhood; months after the Internal Security Forces (ISF) were accused of “illegally occupying it."In May, then-telecom minister Charbel Nahhas  – who represents the Free Patriotic Movement – and Ogero Director General Abdel Monem Youssef engaged in a controversial dispute after ISF units deployed in the building. The ISF said it was deployed at the request of Ogero “to protect a phone network against Nahhas’s illegal intention to dismantle it.”The Lebanese army later took control of the building.
