Judge refers file of "prime terrorist" to Military Prosecution

2^min

The Military Investigation Judge of Beirut Riad Abou Ghaida issued on Tuesday an arrest warrant against Jamal Daftardar, and referred Naim Abbas' file to the Military Prosecution.

The Lebanese Armed Forces arrested on the 12th of February a Palestinian national identified as Naim Abbas dubbed "the most dangerous terrorist in the country."

Preliminary information revealed that Abbas had been at the receiving end of a network smuggling booby trapped cars.

After his arrest, Abbas confessed the presence of an explosive-laden vehicle, which was later found and dismantled by Lebanese Armed Forces units.

The vehicle was a black RAV 4 SUV loaded with explosives parked in a parking lot in the Corniche al-Mazraa region.

Similarly, LAF Intelligence arrested, Jamal Daftardar, a leader of an al Qaeda-linked militant group, in a raid on his hideout in the Bekaa town of Kamed el-Laouz on Wednesday January 15.

Jamal Daftardar, was one of the leading figures in the Abdullah Azzam Brigades, a group operating in Lebanon which claimed responsibility for a bombing on the Iranian embassy in November which killed at least 23.

In January, three car bomb attacks, implemented by suicide bombers, have rocked areas that are considered Hezbollah strongholds in the country.

Two bombings hit the Beirut southern suburb region of Haret Hreik, while another bomb attack targeted the Bekaa town of Hermel.
