Head of the Free Patriotic Movement MP Michel Aoun met on Wednesday with a delegation from the families of the servicemen who were kidnapped from the northeastern border town of Arsal in August.
He said after the talks: “An officer from the Internal Security Forces and another from the army should be tasked with keeping the families up-to-date with the developments linked to the case.”
The MP hoped that the ministerial crisis cell tackling the issue would take his proposal into consideration.
He declared that the families have the right to know what is happening with their loved ones.
“We discovered that we have wronged them because we know nothing of the negotiations,” Aoun said.
“We should change our attitude towards the families, who should be in on the truth,” he stressed.
