Now lebanon - Zeaiter: Rifi presented ‘undocumented information’ on Syrians’ abduction, October 19, 2011

Development and Liberation bloc MP Ghazi Zeaiter said on Wednesday that Internal Security Forces Director General Achraf Rifi “[presented] undocumented information that the judicial authorities are still looking into,” in reference to the issue of abducting Syrian nationals in Lebanon.
Zeaiter told Akhbar al-Yawm news agency that “it is unacceptable for Rifi to unveil such data.”
Last week, Al-Jumhuriya newspaper reported that Rifi told the parliamentary committee for human rights that “members of the Lebanese security forces assigned to protect the Syrian embassy in Lebanon kidnapped four Syrians, [whose family name is Jassem], using embassy vehicles.”
However, Syrian ambassador to Lebanon Ali Abdul Karim Ali denied the report, and said that he was “puzzled by these unfounded claims that have been attributed to the police chief.”
Zeaiter also criticized some political stances taken by Lebanese politicians regarding the behavior of the Syrian Embassy in Beirut and the violation of Lebanese borders by Syrian forces, and said that “some are attempting to make political statements that do not serve the interests of the Lebanese [people].”
Some March 14 figures have criticized Ali and called for summoning him.
On October 4, Syrian army tanks crossed the Lebanese border near the town of Aarsal and fired several gunshots within Lebanese territory. On October 6, Syrian troops shot and killed a farmer near Aarsal.
