Judge Sawan issues arrest warrant against Syrian for belonging to armed group

The state-run National News Agency reported on Thursday that an arrest warrant was issued against a detained Syrian national on charges of belonging to an armed terrorist group.

The agency added that the Military Examining Magistrate Judge Fadi Sawan issued the warrant against Amer Hamdoun and referred him to the permanent military court for trial.

The charges include the attempted murder of soldiers, burning army vehicles in the northern city of Tripoli, and the possession of weapons and explosives.

The detainee may face the death penalty if convicted.

Last week, the army carried out raids in the city of Tripoli and arrested a Syrian national accused of belonging to a terrorist organization.
