Gemayel said the captives were interrogated about their political affiliations. He did not disclose further details.
However, reliable sources said Hezbollah gunmen on Sunday intercepted two Sports Utility Vehicles carrying a number of vacationing youth in Tohan area, between Sannine Mount and Zaarour and kidnapped them for a few hours.
The captives, according to the sources, included "a citizen from Aql family and another citizen from the Khoury family."
He said the captives were "held for more than three hours during which they were interrogated individually in a tent that was part of a camp set up by the Hezbollah squad in the mountainous region."
The development escalated tension as it revealed deployment by Hezbollah gunmen in strategically-located highland that commands road links between the coastal sector of Lebanon and the inland Bekaa Valley as well the coastal highway linking north Lebanon to Beirut.
