Sami Gemayel: The Syrian Embassy Kidnaps Opposition Members in Lebanon

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Lebanese police have information implicating Damascus' embassy in Beirut in the disappearance of a Syrian opposition figure last seen in May, an MP Sami Gemayel said on Wednesday.

Police chief Ashraf Rifi told a parliamentary committee on human rights that he had collected "dangerous information" pointing to the embassy in the disappearance of Shebli al-Aysami, Gemayel told Agence France Presse.

Rifi "provided dangerous information concerning the implication of the Syrian embassy in the kidnapping of Shebli Aysami," Gemayel told AFP.

Aysami's daughter, who attended the meeting in parliament, also confirmed the news.

"According to Rifi's investigations, information clearly points to the Syrian embassy in my father's disappearance," Raja Sharafeddine told AFP.

Syria's ambassador to Lebanon could not immediately be reached for comment.

Aysami, 86, is a co-founder of Syria's ruling Baath party but fled his native Syria in 1966 over political differences with the group. He was last seen in the eastern Lebanese region of Aley.

Amnesty International on October 3 said Syrian authorities were cracking down on activists and opposition figures in eight countries, but did not include Lebanon on the list.

We've seen the efficiency of your government: Mtv incident on airport road, Lassa, the Estonians, Antelias, The shootings in the North, in the Bekaa, our land sovereinty beeing violated each and everyday with no action taken... Gr8!

@mowaten
It is great that you have a pathetic excuse for all the incidents that took place in this country in only 5 months time.
I was not refering to the MTV crew in Lassa but to the one on the airport road.
The Estonians affair is a total black out. The dissinformation is dramatic!
As for the M14 smuggling arms to Syria, I'd say you have quite some nerve!
They flooded us with smuggled weapons for 30 years!!
Anyway, I am glad that you are contempt with the securitie issue in Lebanon. Congratulations!

PS: Your word games are phenomenal and veeeeery clever. Again, congrats!

Wlek jabalamel w Mowaten khalsouna ba'a men habalkon...both of you are bunch of retards completely brainwashed by the stupid Iranians and dirty Hezbollah...go live in Terhan khalsouna ba'a men habalkon and your crazy war mentality. Some Lebanese unlike Hassouna el haboul are educated and want to live...we saw what is March 8 made from, and we saw what a joke is your government you have formed. All Hebzo can do is to receive orders from Iran, kill, death threats, fabricate bombs...be proud to be Lebanese for once! If Hezbo is really for Lebanon they would defend the borders with Syria as well no? oh but they are controlled by these people as well...Can't believe we have retards like you in leb (but your end is near)

the zionist information war department has declared that "our end is near".

since they are known for their accuracy ("one week to destroy hezb'allah in 2006), looks like "we gonna be here forever".

Thumb jabalamel 13 October 2011, 16:17

actually, if you assume that "us" is our glorious resistance...than it's true our end is near...because the end of zionist entity is near....and when that monster disappears, all the weapons from our glorious resistance will go to the army...

The "end of zionist entity is near" ?????
This propaganda is used by the turbaned analphabets to brainwash their poor followers. It is not possible that a wise person can at one second beleive in such joke.
Zionists are governing the world and are controling financial and information entities. Facebook and google are owned bi zionists. Israel has hundreds of warplanes and has a terrible destruction potential. One flight of 2 hours duration can destroy our infrastructure including telecom and electricity. Do we have any interest in defying such monster?
Oh i forgot...we have 1000000000 rockets. Exactly what Israel wants to keep us under threat destruction.

of course if you are some kind of mountain boy, that never tasted the genocidal nature of zionist militia, than you don't know what that means.
