Lebanon to extradite ex-Syrian officer
The Lebanese judiciary has decided to hand over former Syrian officer Adel Issa to Syrian authorities for trial on charges of murder and crimes against humanity, based on the 1951 agreement between the two countries. This decision comes after his detention in Lebanon following a missing person notice from Syria, where he is accused of committing crimes during the tenure of former President Bashar al-Assad on Syrian soil. Issa is scheduled to be transferred from Beirut to the Syrian border to stand trial there, as part of judicial and security cooperation between Lebanon and Syria.
