The alleged escape of Ali Mamlouk, a senior Syrian intelligence officer and confidant of former president Bashar al-Assad to Beirut has raised several questions in Lebanon, Lebanese newspaper Nidaa al-Watan reported in recent days.
Nidaa al-Watan reported that Mamlouk is hiding at a luxury hotel in the southern suburbs of Beirut under Hezbollah’s protection rather than facing prosecution. This is despite him being wanted by Lebanese authorities for his involvement in the 2013 bombings of the Al-Taqwa and Al-Salam mosques in Tripoli.
Lebanon's caretaker Interior Minister, Bassam Mawlawi, denied the reports, stating, "According to the information from security agencies, Mamlouk is not in Lebanon and did not enter through legal border crossings."
