37 indicted in Sidon battles including Assir, Shaker

Share:

judge saqr saqrState Commissioner to Lebanon’s Military Court Judge Saqr Saqr indicted 37 people, including the radical Salafist Sheikh Ahmad al-Assir, for their involvement in Sidonโ€™s Abra clashes, the state owned National News Agency reported on Thursday.

Among the indictees are three Syrian nationals, Palestinians, and ten fugitives, including Assir and retired singer Fadel Shaker.

The 37 suspects were accused of forming a terrorist group, attacking citizens and the Lebanese Armed Forces, intentionally killing and injuring soldiers, and vandalizing military vehicles, buildings, and cars.

If convinced, the suspects face the death penalty.

Sheikh Assir was also accused of making statements which affect the military institution, creating strife and tampering with civil peace.

Saqr referred the file to the military investigative judge to probe into the case.

The Lebanese army seized control of Assirโ€™s headquarters last week after his supporters battled the army for two days, resulting in the death of 18 soldiers.

The Lebanese army handed over last Saturday the mosque of Bilal bin Rabah , the scene of the clashes to the Muslim Ulemas. Assir who is now on the run was the former Imam of the Mosque.

Sidon Mufti Sheikh Salim Sousan said after the handover of the Bilal bin Rabah mosque:

โ€ I salute the victims of the clashes and I announce that we regained control of this mosque and it will be reopened in the future.โ€

Sousan named Sheikh Mohammed Abou Zeid as the mosqueโ€™s new Imam and called for a society of law and order .

โ€œWe oppose the illegitimate arms and support the army. We demand a society of law and order.โ€ Sousan stressed

          Every ‘almost-normal’ person is walking on eggshells … trying to keep heads down, Guest. To say anyone is ‘normal’ would be a stretch after so many years of angst and scraping by hoping a bullet doesn’t come through a window or wall.

            Personally Guest, I think those are the ‘normal’ ones. :-)))
            Do you like Scotch? ๐Ÿ˜‰
            As for missing things in Lebanon …. well, yes … it’s a strange fact. I put it down to liking the view of some particular hilly terrain … or a beach … and ‘a people’ who say ‘You’re Welcome’ and mean it.
            And that’s basically why there’s a ‘blog’ like this trying to figure out how to make it possible for 16 million of them outside the country to feel comfortable enough to go back for a visit and see those mountains once again, and feel ‘together’ with the 4 million who couldn’t escape, before the place filled up with a couple million ‘refugees’ (and adding as we speak) who never leave because it’s so damn nice a place to shoot bullets around in, and burn tyres in, and disrespect the women in.
            You know you’re ‘home’ when the first question you get is ‘Where are you FROM!’ … and then, hopefully before the gun comes out, ‘what sect are YOU’ !!

            Nah, with your long blond hair, your make-up, and the swishing way you walk, they’d probably just bend you over the nearest object and “have their way” with you.

            Of course, you’d probably like it. LOL

            On this one real, I’m with you all the way. Any mother F@*ker who takes on one of us, (us being Lebanese that is) takes on all of us. Even though we might have different political and religious beliefs. We should always try and stand as one. :))

We are one of the most proudest people in the world, however we let little things get to us which for some reason brings out the worst in us. At the end of the day, we are Lebanese.

            Yes, I totally agree!! Its just that with the majority of the politicians (from both coalitions), there is no compromise. Like when March 14 boycotts parliament sessions. Or March 8 demands veto power or no cabinet will be formed. I feel that both coalitions need to put their differences aside and do something many Lebanese have been waiting for, A STRONG UNIFIED GOVERNMENT.

            Why you got into it at all is strange.
            But you’re a tricky one – perhaps it was that sort-of-skinhead symbol you use.

            Dooby has been “following” (stalking) me on Disqus across several forums and hitting on me. Unless he’s actually a female, he’s gay.

            On this one real, I’m with you all the way. Any mother F@*ker who takes on one of us, (us being Lebanese that is) takes on all of us. Even though we might have different political and religious beliefs. We should always try and stand as one. :))

            Stop it real, we are suppose to be debating, not agreeing. lol ))). But on a serious note, how could would it be if all of us really did stand as one. Despite our differences. We are one of the most proudest people in the world, however we let little things get to us which for some reason brings out the worst in us. At the end of the day, we are Lebanese. The best of the best. :)))

            Yes, I totally agree!! Its just that with the majority of the politicians (from both coalitions), there is no compromise. Like when March 14 boycotts parliament sessions. Or March 8 demands veto power or no cabinet will be formed. I feel that both coalitions need to put their differences aside and do something many Lebanese have been waiting for, A STRONG UNIFIED GOVERNMENT.

            You should have a talk with one of your two dads if you think a man can get pregnant from rape. LOL

            You’re the one that described a woman with make up and swishing when she walked. Then you describe her getting gang raped! I know a man can’t get pregnant, come on now. I guess there was no hatred in your comment, huh?

            Oh, no hatred or bigotry … I attempt analysis of general ‘thought-patterns’. How you thought Dooby was ‘gay’ from anything we said there was beyond me.
            But you’re a tricky one – perhaps it was that sort-of-skinhead symbol you use.
            Tell me, was I right at least about the ‘NRA mini-dictator’ ?? ๐Ÿ˜‰

            Actually, you’re dumb as a post and a bigot, too. Your mom may tell you that you’re handsome and smart, but she’s your mom so she HAS to lie to you.

            Dooby has been “following” (stalking) me on Disqus across several forums and hitting on me. Unless he’s actually a female, he’s gay.

            Please let us know how well you do in the Special Olympics this year.

            Well, I hadn’t met him before, so give me a chance before breaking in and dumping on him/her. ๐Ÿ˜‰
            Perhaps I should go back to the original analysis and simply add ‘Jewish’. ?

            How immature are you? Do you think you’re Pee Wee Herman? I say you’re a hater, and all you can come back with is “bounces off me and sticks to you!”
            Grow up.

            As for women, don’t be jealous because they’re attracted to me but only point at you and laugh.

            And regarding the mentally-challenged, what drugs were you on when you hallucinated that I said anything negative about you?

            You’re really good at putting people down. Your hateful parents must be real proud or raising such a douche. Sounds like the women attracted to you have male genitalia.

            Questioning my maturity? Really? You’re such a tool!
