Now Lebanon - Qamati: How did Geagea know about Sayyed’s summons? - September 20, 2010

How could Lebanese Forces (LF) leader Samir Geagea know about the judiciary’s summons of former General Security chief Jamil as-Sayyed, and “what is his legal capacity so that [he was able] to know?” Hezbollah official Mohammad Qamati asked while speaking to OTV on Monday.

As-Safir newspaper reported on Thursday that Geagea informed LF officials that Sayyed would be summoned for questioning. Later on Thursday, the LF issued a statement saying that this article’s report that Geagea said his party would confront those objecting to the summons was “nothing but a story from its writers’ imagination and is totally untrue.”

In a statement issued on Friday, Hezbollah called on the judiciary to revoke Attorney General Said Mirza’s decision to summon Sayyed for questioning about his threatening speeches.
