2 Held for Taking Pictures near Rifi's Tripoli Residence

Two people were arrested Thursday for using cameras near the residence of Justice Minister Ashraf Rifi in the northern city of Tripoli.

“Two people raised suspicions as they were taking pictures of the surroundings of Rifi's residence in Tripoli,” state-run National News Agency reported.

“One of them is Lebanese and the other is Sri Lankan,” NNA said.

The guards of the apartment immediately arrested them and handed them over to the Internal Security Forces Intelligence Branch for further interrogation, the agency added.

Rifi is a former chief of the ISF and an outspoken member of al-Mustaqbal movement.
