Lebanon Detains Relative of Syria's Ex-President
Suleiman Hilar Assad, a relative of former Syrian President Bashar Assad, was arrested in Lebanon during a raid on a warehouse suspected of being used for drug storage in the Bekaa Valley. He was detained along with several other individuals, and Syrian authorities have requested his extradition on charges of murder and drug trafficking. It is worth noting that Suleiman is the son of Hilar Assad, who was killed in 2014. Hilar was sentenced to 20 years in prison in Syria in 2016 for the killing of an officer but was released in 2020 after serving nearly five years behind bars.
