The death of a Syrian young man under torture inside a state security prison in southern Lebanon sparked confusion at the security, judicial and political levels, and brought back to the fore the file of torture in pretrial detention centers.
Lebanese sources told Asharq Al-Awsat that the arrested Syrian, Bashar Abdel-Saud, “died less than three hours after his arrest.” He was questioned on suspicion of leading a terrorist network working for ISIS.
