Mourners outraged at army’s funeral harassment
Bsharri residents were “angry” after the army arrested 10 university students affiliated with the banned Lebanese Forces (LF) after they participated in the funeral of a colleague in the town of Bsharri, a member of the group said Wednesday. They were all released later the same night, he added. The group was attending a Mass to pray for Toni Keyrouz, aged 23, who was shot dead in the United States during an armed robbery. Some 3,000 people from the town of Bsharri, hometown of both Keyrouz and detained LF leader Samir Geagea, attended the Mass in the town’s biggest church, Saint Saba. Those paying their respects included friends of Keyrouz and LF members. A large convoy of cars took Keyrouz’s body Tuesday from Saydet al-Maounat Hospital (Our Lady of Salvation) in Jbeil to Bsharri.
