The Internal Security Forces Saturday announced the arrest of two men alleged to have perpetrated dozens of robberies across Beirut and Mount Lebanon.
The suspects were identified in an ISF statement as M.A., a Syrian national born in 1992 and nicknamed Abu Hakam, and H.Aa., a Lebanese national born in 1990 and nicknamed Karaji.
The ISF said the suspects had committed the robberies while riding a white motorcycle and often impersonated security forces.
M.A. had previously been wanted on charges of impersonation and theft, and H.Aa. had been wanted for “ill treatment” of security officers.
This security incident was mapped according to the closest possible location.
