Judge Hammoud says forensic report on Al Qaeda Commander’s body not issued yet
      
Acting General Prosecutor Judge Samir Hammoud stressed on Wednesday that the body of Abdallah Azzam Brigades’ leader, Majed al-Majed was not handed to his relatives via the Saudi embassy in Lebanon.       

Judge Hammoud added that the forensic report on al-Majed’s body was not issued yet, and said: “The Lebanese authorities are awaiting the said report to determine whether his body will be handed over to his family”.         

“The forensic doctors had asked for a 72-hour deadline to finalize the report,” he said, noting that he may receive it by tomorrow.        

On Sunday, the Saudi Ambassador to Lebanon Ali Awad Asiri told LBCI that the relatives of Majed al-Majed submitted a request to the Saudi foreign ministry asking for the repatriation of his body to Saudi Arabia.         

Ambassador Asiri also noted that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia did not ask for an autopsy of the body.         

A Lebanese army general said on Saturday the leader of an al-Qaeda-linked group that has conducted attacks across the Middle East before shifting its focus to Syria's civil war died in custody in Lebanon.                              

The general said Majed al-Majed died after suffering kidney failure.
