NowLebanon - Qortbawi calls for implementing law regarding leaks on Samaha case, August 13 2012


Justice Minister Shakib Qortbawi called on Sunday for holding to account the groups responsible for leaking information pertaining to the interrogation of detained former Information Minister Michel Samaha.
The minister, speaking to New TV, called for implementing the law for the sake of the interrogation’s integrity.
On Thursday, Lebanese security forces arrested Samaha, who has close ties with Syria's embattled regime, in a case linked to explosives.
Following his arrest, several media reports said that Samaha confessed under interrogation that he had transferred “explosives from Syria to Lebanon in order to carry out bombings in North Lebanon, particularly in the area of Akkar, with Syria’s knowledge.”
