Four individuals were arrested by the Internal Security Forces in Mount Lebanon on suspicion of drug offences.
The ISF reportedly received intelligence that J.S. and A.Kh. were in possession of heroin, and ISF personnel were subsequently able to arrest the suspects in an area next to Jbeil.
Upon their arrest, the pair revealed the identity of their dealer, who was lured by the ISF to Zouk Mosbeh and then arrested. The suspected dealer was identified as H.K. He was determined to be working for a certain F.H., who was also then arrested.
Upon F.H.'s arrest, authorities found dozens of prepackaged drug capsules that were ready for sale.
