As Reason2Resist reported earlier this week, Laith Marouf, the Executive Director of Free Palestine TV, was arrested in south Lebanon on Sunday, July 20, by municipal police.

Laith was then handed over by the police to Lebanon’s military intelligence.

After that, Laith disappeared for about three days. No one was able to reach him, and inquiries made to determine his whereabouts yielded no information about what had happened to him.

Then, late at night on July 22, about ten hours after Reason2Resist published its report on Laith’s arrest and detention, Laith was released from the military intelligence HQ in Beirut.

For the time being, Laith is not prepared to be interviewed about what happened to him. He’s currently consulting legal counsel.

In the interim, however, Reason2Resist has spoken to a knowledgeable source in Lebanon’s military intelligence

Based on the information received from that source, and based on other publicly available information, we’ve learned a great deal about what happened to Laith, but important questions remain unanswered.
