BEIRUT: Around 25 people gathered at the
Gibran Khalil Gibran Garden in Downtown Beirut Thursday and urged the
government to work on revealing the fate of tens of Lebanese in Syrian prisons.
The people, mostly relatives of Lebanese in
Syrian jails, urged the government to act immediately given what they described
as the tragic circumstances unfolding in the neighboring country, particularly
the deteriorating security situation there.
It is not known exactly how
many Lebanese nationals are in Syrian prisons, but NGO estimates put the number
at around 130.http://www.dailystar.com.lb/News/Local-News/2012/Aug-02/183153-families-of-lebanese-held-in-syrian-jails-protest-in-beirut.ashx#axzz22OD0d0aY
