Efforts to block Assad's cousin's transfer to Damascus
The article discusses an attempt to prevent the extradition of cousin of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, Sulaiman Halaal al-Assad, to Syrian authorities. He was detained in Lebanon on September 12, 2026, on charges related to drug possession, carrying illegal weapons, and illegal residence. Syria has petitioned for his extradition to pursue charges of murder, rape, and drug trafficking. The Assad family, through a lawyer close to them, is trying to circumvent the law and prolong his detention in Lebanon, amid concerns of efforts to ensure he is not handed over to Damascus.
