Karam transferred to Roumieh prison


Detainee Brig. Gen. Fayez Karam appeared in good condition as he was transferred last night to Roumieh prison and placed under the supervision of the police Intelligence Bureau , LBC TV reported Friday evening.

Free patriotic Movement MP Michel Helou called last night for establishing who was behind the leaks of Karam’s confidential investigation.

Helou’s remarks come after FPM leader MP Michel Aoun attacked the Intelligence branch of Lebanon’s Internal Security Forces over the investigation leaks.

Karam – a senior FPM official – was arrested early August on charges of spying for Israel. During the investigation Aoun had repeatedly condemned the authorities over the issue of leaks to the media .

Karam was charged with espionage and providing Israel with information on Hezbollah, Aoun’s closest ally.

Karam and Aoun went into exile in France following Aoun’s defeat by the Syrian army in 1990 and both returned to Lebanon in May 2005 , 11 days following the withdrawal of the Syrian army from Lebanon.

    helou and aoun are both idiots. h/a knew of karam’s actions a year or two ago and were watching every step he made. h/a is behind the leaks and arrest, fpm do not realized that they are marginalized by h/a and that h/a will go after anyone against its principles and ideology. BTW, who died and made helou a pro on legal and government issues. Who are we going to hear from next!!! I bet you jumblatt won’t.

    he wa spy before he went to France, he worked with the Israelis there along with Aoun and continued to be their guy….. Aoun is afrais that this guy will spill the beans on him… the truth will come out….

      Bill I totally agree and way before Karam arrest there were news coming out of hezbollah camp that Aoun was dealing directly with the israelis. How could they accept such acts by Aoun but they denounces the phalangist dealings with the israelis. Yes Aoun didn’t deal with openly like Kataab. But still dealing with israel should be treated equally the same. Don’t you think that Prophet? or La Resistance Du Iran..
