Unrest in Khalde as fugitive arrested by army

Unrest erupted Tuesday in Khalde in connection with the arrest of a fugitive from the area’s Arab tribesmen.

“Moussa Zaher Ghosn was arrested by army intelligence agents on Khalde’s seaside road and a clash broke out between the army intelligence agents and the tribesmen,” al-Jadeed TV reported, adding that Ghosn was wounded in the clash.

The TV network added that the man was arrested over a clash between the Ghosn and Nawfal families and an incident that involved opening fire at shops in the Khalde area around a month ago.

“The fugitive Ghosn has been transferred to the army intelligence center in Beirut while the Lebanese Army is working on opening the road,” al-Jadeed said.
