Investigations into deadly attack against 3 LAF soldiers in Arsal continue

            
Military Investigative Judge Imad el-Zein is proceeding with the investigations into the killing of three Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) soldiers in the northeastern Lebanese border town of Arsal and the illegal possession of arms pursuant to article 546 of the penal code and 72 weapons.             
El-Zein has designated the 25th of June as the date to proceed with the interrogations with suspect Ahmad Mohammad and other witnesses.                   
Three Lebanese Armed Forces' soldiers were killed on Tuesday May 28th, after unknown assailants opened fire at them at 3 am dawn in the region of Wadi Hmeid on the outskirts of Arsal, northeastern Lebanon.                            

The LAF took airtight measures in the region in order to identify the assailants who escaped towards the Syrian territories.                           

The soldiers who were killed in Arsal were identified as: Ali Monzer, Mustafa Hayek and Mohamad Sharaf Eddine, and were taken to Beirut's military hospital.                         

The Lebanese Army had set up a security cordon the following night around Farhat Hospital in Jeb Jennin, following reports stating that an injured Free Syrian Army soldier who is being treated there is suspected to be involved in the attack.                              

Later the army removed the cordon after the investigations revealed that the injured soldier has been at the hospital for one week, before the incident.
