Judicial Official Says Asir's Health not Worrisome
A judicial official has said there are no worries about the health of Salafist cleric Sheikh Ahmed al-Asir who is detained at al-Reyhanieh prison in Yarze.
“The condition of Ahmed al-Asir is not at all worrying. He is receiving the proper care,” the unidentified official told pan-Arab daily Asharq al-Awsat in remarks published on Thursday.
The prison's doctor is visiting him daily, he said. “There is no need to transfer him to hospital.”
“But the judiciary will not hesitate to approve any request made by the doctor” to take him to hospital, the official added.
Al-Asir's mother said on Wednesday that his health was rapidly deteriorating in prison.
She urged the authorities to transfer him to Roumieh prison, saying al-Reyhanieh “is unsuitable for his health situation.”
Al-Asir was arrested in August at Beirut's Rafik Hariri International Airport while trying to travel to Nigeria via Cairo with a fake Palestinian passport.
Al-Asir, a firebrand anti-Hizbullah cleric, had been on the run since June 2013 after his armed supporters clashed with the Lebanese army in the southern port city of Sidon. The fighting killed 18 Lebanese soldiers.

hahahahahah humble, i always thought you were a hateful idiot, but i'm starting to realize you actually have a huge sense of humour
he is right moooowaten... the presence of hezbollah triggered a natural response: as one extremist group is allowed to do whatever they want, to carry weapons despite all laws and resolutions then the logic is that the other side would respond... so don't cry: hezbollah s the responsible here....
you believed that leaving some islamists fanatics free to rule Lebanon would never cause an opposite reaction? you are so naive and idiot then....
still stuck on the same loop for years, no matter how many times we prove you wrong, you keep repeating the same thing.
because facts are hard to die... and reminding you that you are just an iranian agent working for iran and that you pledged allegiance to Khomeiny but NEVER to Lebanon hurts your feelings...
if you deny that the presence of one fanatic group would never lead to anyy reactions then you are truly the biggest idiot on this site... pityful you
claiming the takfiris attacked lebanon because of hezbollah (which implies they wouldn't have done it if there wasn't hezbollah) is disproved by the countless examples of places and people they attacked without there being anything remotely close to hezbollah
(christians in maaloula, kurds in kobbane, everyone in mosul, yazidis in sinjar....)
only fools or people with hidden intentions would pretend the takfiris were not a threat that needed to be dealt with, and only hypocrites would not see the critical role played by hezbollah in neutering them
"claiming the takfiris attacked lebanon because of hezbollah "
typical idiot answer by an iranian lover...
this article is about asir and not your beloved ISIS... i am commenting about asir not syria...
as you cannot deny what i say you divert the subject to avoid looking like a fool and acknowledging i am right.
but then again who asks a hezbi lover to be intelligent... without any brains it is difficult to them...
@mowaten E-X-C-E-L-L-E-N-T. Still laughing since the day you declared with a straight face you were a shiaa atheist and also a member of hezbollah with only one account. I think i will also continue to laugh at your statement " i'm starting to realize you actually have a huge sense of humour ". Thank you Thank you
I live in Bali, Indonesia. I must say you are the king of trolls on this forum. Easy so we can decipher some news and intelligent comments.
"A judicial official has said there are no worries about the health of Salafist cleric Sheikh Ahmed al-Asir"
well obviously yes, there is no reason we should -worry- about his health, even if he was dying nobody would care.
@naharnet: so your mod read and approved the above comment, what does that say about you? congrats, you've hit the lowest of the low
your friend moowaten was pointing to the comment not the username...
and if you pay attention to comments of such usernames then you are just playing their games. they are here just to appear smart and get the attention just like a spoiled brat...
plus you ll find stupid names from both sides...
yes mowaten yes... we read it and we approved it. It fits you well and we see no harm at all.
Mowaten I'm not a big poster here but I have been using this site for over 30 years and recently I have been liking your posts, your the only one informing these deluded ignorants. :)
you know what is strange mowaten.... I was thinking the same thing exactly, the same!!!! The similarities between us are not just coincidences anymore. I mean we are both shiaa extremists who pretend to be secular and we both are members of the shia resistance, both paid to post, both are sectarian to the bone, both troll and make up accounts to insult people and then pretend we are against such practices.... I hope just because we are similar in all the above ways people don't think we are the same poster.
No did YOU CITYBOY visited Qom? Sure the answer is : NO. , there you have it .. very DIFFERENT!
see the desperate propaganda texas? we denounce ALL forms of fanatism be it shia or sunni but those hezbi lovers still cannot understand in their binary brains how it is possible....
if you are against shia islamist fanatics for them it means you support the sunni ones... their brain bugs if you tell them otherwise. it shows how brainwashed and idiot they are....
