Father: Gov’t Not Responsible for Hasan’s Death, Miqati Our Friend

The father of slain top Lebanese security official Wissam al-Hasan said on Sunday that he does not hold the government responsible for the death of his son.

In a conversation with LBC television, Adnan al-Hassan labeled Premier Najib Miqati as a “friend,’ and “wished him all the best.”

The Chief of the Internal Security Forces-Information Branch Hassan was killed in a car bombing in Beirut’s Achrafieh on 19 October.
