Public Prosecutor Jamal Hajjar handed over to the Mount Lebanon Court of Appeal on Friday the file on the preliminary investigation carried out by the Army into the murder of Pascal Sleiman, coordinator of the Lebanese Forces in Jbeil, who was abducted and killed during an alleged car theft.
Six suspects of Syrian nationality were also referred to the public prosecutor, including the four alleged murderers.
Two other Syrians suspected of involvement in the murder have yet to be arrested. The Lebanese security services are still waiting for the competent Syrian authorities to arrest them and hand them over. Five individuals, including three Lebanese, are supposed to be handed over by Damascus to the Lebanese services.
