Jumblat Accuses General Security Chief of Yielding to Syrian Regime over Deportations

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Progressive Socialist Party leader MP Walid Jumblat accused on Thursday General Security chief Maj. Gen. Abbas Ibrahim of utterly following the Syrian regime’s orders by deporting 14 Syrians.

“It would be useful to remind (Ibrahim) that Syria and during the stability period in the country didn’t have any true concept of independent judicial system, like all the other dictatorial regimes,” Jumblat said in a statement.

He called on the cabinet and the competent Lebanese authorities to clarify the matter and to launch an investigation to determine those who are responsible for it.

The cabinet should “take all the disciplinary measures against the Maj. Gen. and to sack him if necessary to halt this ongoing charade,” Jumblat said.

The General Security deported on Wednesday 14 Syrians wanted for common law not political offences by their country, it said in a communique.

The Druze leader lashed out at Ibrahim, saying that the fate of these 14 men will be “their murder and liquidation before proving them guilty.”

“The accusations are fabricated and match with the Syrian regime’s traditional methods in excluding anyone who opposes it,” Jumblat said.

He stressed his rejection to handing over any Syrian national who had fled into Lebanon for safe haven under any excuse and for any reason.

“This doesn’t come in accordance with the authorities’ decision to disassociate the country to safeguard it. It is merely a biased stance leaning towards the Syrian regime,” Jumblat said.

For once ya Walid beik I back you and support you 100%, Lebanon need to be cleansed of all the Syrian/Iranian boot lickers.

Agreed 100% but does this include those who licked the Syrian boots for 30+ years but decided to go against Syria only when Rafik Hariri RIP was murdered but were indifferent when Lebanon was being raped economically, politically, culturally, and socially?

It started in Lebanon, and will be completed in Syria.

Is this another Wafiq Shuqair story? Remember that was the renegade officer who was spying on the airport movements off the March 14 members, and reporting back to the Hezb! It triggered the may 7th treacherous onslaught on West Beirut by the Hizb thugs. Of course then there was the question of the illegal phone network too, but the Hizb hadn't toppled the government by threat of arms. If all the Hizb/Syrian dogs, Sayyed, Kandil, Wahhab, are keeping a low profile today, it's because they are not much needed. The Hizb has increased ever since it's hold on State Institutions: General Security, Customs, some parts of the Leb army (remember the assasination of the two sheikhs in Akkar). This Abbas Ibrahim mentioned here is some illustration of such changes.

Abbas Ibrahim is responsible for the death of these 14 Syrians and shame on this government that takes its orders from Damascus even at the time when people in Damascus are not taking its orders.

Nassarallah is responsible of the death of these 14 Syrians not Abbas coz abbas is a small soldier following chain of commands orders

Collaborating in ethnic-cleansing crimes can cost the General a life sentence at the Hague. It's VERY dangerous. Collaborators rarely make out it intact.

Thumb benzona 02 August 2012, 22:56

He sent them to a sure death, that's what matters. He's now labelled as a collaborator.

So the Sunnis again are controlling all of the middle east. As a christian, I should speed up my immigration papers or just prepare my funeral papers.
