Lebanon in shock after ex-general”s arrest on spy charges

BEIRUT: This week”s arrest of a well-respected retired general and politician allied with Hezbollah on suspicion of spying for Israel has sent shock waves through Lebanon and left many wondering how deep the Jewish state has infiltrated the country.

Fayez Karam, a member of the Christian Free Patriotic Movement (FPM), is the first political figure to be arrested in Lebanon as part of a wide-ranging probe launched in 2009 into Israeli spy networks.

A well-informed source close to the investigation told media that after his detention last Monday on the orders of the prosecutor general, Karam confessed to spying for Israel.

“You don”t arrest someone like him without rock-solid proof and there was enough evidence against him,” the source, who requested anonymity, said.

“He may not have given the Israelis much technical information, but his arrest has a huge political impact because of his position and rank,” he added.
