Authorities have unveiled a plot to assassinate a Lebanese security official in the Beirut district of Ashrafiyeh, prompting the relevant security agencies to take the necessary precautionary measures, LBC television reported on Friday.

The headquarters of the Directorate General of Internal Security Forces is located in Ashrafiyeh.
This is not the first time the media has reported a supposed plot to murder a security official in Lebanon. Not long ago, Al-Manar television spoke of a plot to assassinate General Security chief Maj. Gen. Abbas Ibrahim.
Captain Wissam Eid, a top communications analyst with the ISF Intelligence Bureau, was assassinated in a January 25, 2008 car bombing outside Beirut.
And on December 12, 2007, Brigadier General Francois al-Hajj, chief of the army operations directorate, was killed in a car bomb attack in Baabda, along with three other people.
