    I don’t understand why his Friend Nader handed himself over to Police? or this article written poorly?

      A witness. They write it strangely – reporter self-protection … it’s the thinking … getting anywhere near the police can be detrimental to one’s health.
      ‘OH. YOU SAW IT? You must be involved … 3 days inquisition.’
      Long-standing fear of opening a mouth about anything. Semi-logical Lebanon.
      ‘OH. You are helping the accident victim?? Are you a doctor? NO?? … 3 days inquisition.’
      Accident victims can lie on a road until they die. Especially in Tripoli – crowds watch.
      ‘OH. You called to say there was a body?? YOU must be involved. 3 days inquisition.’
      (avoid 3 days inquisition if you are female)
