Report: Exams Results of 32 ISF Officers Manipulated
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
The General Directorate of the Internal Security Forces manipulated the results of the psychiatric exams for the officer recruits, al-Akhbar newspaper reported on Friday.
Interior Minister Marwan Charbel proposed, according to the daily, to cancel the round of exams, which aims at recruiting 75 officers at the ISF, but sources close to the general director denied any fraud in the results.
The manipulation is considered a punitive offense.
According to al-Akhbar, a dispute occurred between ISF chief Maj. Gen. Ashraf Rifi and commander of the Embassies Security Unit Mahmoud Ibrahim, who argued that the results of the psychiatric exams for several candidates were manipulated.
Ibrahim presented two copies for several candidates with different grades, accusing Rifi of manipulating the results of the copy that was at the ISF directorate.
Sources told al-Akhbar that the exam results of 32 candidates were manipulated.
A security source slammed Charbel’s decision to cancel the round, saying that the directorate could depend on the results of the copies that weren’t manipulated in order to choose the passing candidates.
Sources close to Rifi denied the incident.
“The official results of the exams haven’t been announced yet,” the sources said.

My nephew is one of them. He scored the highest couple off years ago and did not get any promotion due to Quota (and also no wasta). He can not do his job likes he wants to because he gets calls from representatives of Hezb or Amal (and sometimes from others) ordering him to release suspects (due to wasta). He thought of quitting but then he will have to leave Lebanon to earn a living.

Thank you helicopter for your honest answer... you see, all sides cheat and do wasta and BEND the law for their own group.
When will we have a country with laws that will be obeyed by the leaders?

I thought this is unusual in Lebanon. Lebanon's regimes are all manipulative. They [ut their people in public service not based on meritocracy but political affiliation. As if this is something new.

We love Al Mustaqbal and its machinations. Only a mafia could rule Lebanon, and there is no better mafia than the mafia of mafias, Al Mustaqbal. And nobody serves a mafia better than those who are failures?

Wasta is rampant in Lebanon and unfortunate most Lebanese from all parties and walks of life are forced to use it...it is a simple of corruption and is present on all levels. It's not an M14 or M8 thing it's a Lebanese thing and must be eliminated.

If every Lebanese thought that " I prefer living a moderate life, without wasta, but everything I have achieved I have achieved with my own work", this would lead to nobody accepting wasta------) Wasta will disappear .
The problem of Wasta is not a problem of the invincible hand. It´s a problem of the Lebanese people that accept this Wasta.
1. Dont take anything by Wasta
2. Do not vote for people giving Wasta.
3. Do not support bussiness where you know Wasta is occuring.
Difficult? maybe, Doable? YES

Well as we say in the states, it is not what you know, but who you know. Does that sound like wasta or not.

Big difference though... I do not know of many Americans going to Lebanon to work. But how many Lebanese are in the USA working and making nice living (too many to count). Opportunity in USA is there for all and if you happen to know people in places, then it is icing on the cake.

Of course, anything reported by Al-Akhbar is believable and becomes truth. Al-Akhbar should be credited for being the newspaper in Lebanon with the greatest concentration of fictional stories. For one reason or another, a newspaper with so many daily "scoops" does not inspire confidence. Of course, this is no reason to stop any of the usual blind M8 supporters to rush to give credit to a story which has not been verified by any other source. Notice that very often, Al-Akhbar scoops are signals for M8 supporters to start a new campaign. I guess we are back to the anti-Rifi campaign which is periodically revived on a slow news day.
