BEIRUT: Interior Minister Marwan Charbel said
the kidnapped Kuwaiti man who was snatched in east Lebanon Saturday, is
expected to be released Monday.
Speaking to MTV station, Charbel said Issam
al-Houty "will be released today."
Houty was kidnapped by gunmen in Hawsh
al-Ghanam in the eastern Bekaa region outside his house. Reports said his wife
informed the Kuwaiti Embassy of the abduction.
Charbel has said that Houty's abduction was
not politically motivated while Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri called Sunday
for his immediate release.
Media reports indicated
earlier Monday that Houty would be released but Kuwait’s ambassador to Lebanon,
Abdel-Aal al-Qinai denied the reports.http://www.dailystar.com.lb/News/Politics/2012/Aug-27/185832-charbel-says-kidnapped-kuwaiti-man-to-be-released.ashx#axzz24lZrSlqk
