BEIRUT: Local television stations reported Sunday that Hatem Moussawi, brother of Hezbollah MP Hussein Moussawi, has allegedly formed a car theft ring that forfeited registration papers to resell the cars in a legal manner.
Reports added that the Internal Security Forces have arrested the members of the gang but that Hatem Moussawi is still at large. MTV reported that the MP’s brother is involved in the gang but is not the ringleader.
Another brother of the MP, Hashem, disappeared last year after the drug control office discovered a Captagon pill factory owned by him in the Bekaa village of Nabi Sheet.
