MP Saqr admits authenticity of audio recordings

LONDON, (ST) _After many days of silence,the member of the Lebanon’s Future Bloc, Oqab Saqer, confirmed authenticity of a recent audio recordings that reveals his involvement in shedding the Syrian blood and destroying Syria.

“Yes. This is my voice and those are my words. I am not in the habit of denying my words or voice and I am not ashamed of what I have done and am doing,” Saqr told the Saudi Ash-Sharq al-Awsat newspaper.

He sees that he is serving the interest of his country in the first place. But he didn’t clarify what is the interest in destroying a neighboring country and shedding the blood of a brotherly people.

Saqer said that he is personally responsible for all his deeds contradicting his previous remark to OTV channel in which he stressed that he was acting at the behest of Saad Hariri, the head of the Future Bloc.

Terrorists’ Relation with Lebanon’s  Future Bloc

Following the confession of Saqer, terrorist Louay al-Mikdak, the coordinator of the higher military council of the so-called Free Army, confirmed that the voice recordings are authentic, affirming that there’s a joint operations room between the Free Army and the Future Bloc and Saad al-Hariri.

In a televised interview, al-Mikdak confessed that the Future Bloc and Saad al-Hariri personally are committed to backing them by all means, and that the person in charge of this task has become known, in a reference to Saqer.

“Saqer will present documents about the nature of the joint operations room and his role in it,” blatantly said al-Mikdak, downplaying the significance of the lawsuits filed against him and Saqer for smuggling weapons into Syria.

Anticipated step

In this context, the Lebanese al-Akhbar newspaper noted that Saqer is trying to anticipate what might be unveiled later about his involvement in other issues related to Lebanon besides his other roles in providing the armed terrorist groups with arms to commit massacres against the Syrian citizens.

“Saqr,who requested to lift his immunity and expressed his readiness o face any potential legal measures in the case, will take the position of attack instead of defending himself,” a close source to Saqer told the paper.

Wanted by Interpol

According to the Lebanese “al-Diyar” paper, Saqr plus other five retired officers from the Lebanese army are on the list of people wanted by the Interpol.

The paper said: “The Huge has arraigned Saqr for investigation over this case.”

Tens of Lebanese Gunmen Entered Syria

On the other hand, the Lebanese “al-Akhbar”newspaper reported that the Lebanese gunmen recently killed in Talkalakh in Syria were one of dozen of gunmen entered Syria from Lebanon.

The paper said that these gunmen funded by a Lebanese MP are called “Jihad Migrations”.

In a news report published on Monday, al-Akhbar noted that the majority of the hundreds of gunmen in the so-called “al-Wadi Battalion” headed by Adbul-Salam H, a Syrian with good connections with a Lebanese MP, are Lebanese.

“Groups of Lebanese gunmen,who are periodically entering Syria for ‘Jihad’, contain persons escaped from Romyyeh prison in Lebanon in May,”said  the paper.

It underlined that the Lebanese gunmen killed in Talkalakh went to Syria upon invitation by “KH. M.”, a leader in Fath al-Islam organization, who called them to come to establish an Islamic Emirate in an area near Homs.
