Lebanese imam charged for collaborating with Israel

BEIRUT: Two Lebanese men, including one imam, were charged Wednesday in a Beirut military court for collaborating with the Jewsih state.

Sheikh Hasan Mshaimesh and Samer Ali al-Hajj were charged for working with Israel and providing the Jewish state with information on Hezbollah in return for money.

Mshaimesh is an imam for Kfar Sir, in the southern Nabatieh district.

Military Judge Saqr Saqr referred the two men to the military magistrate.

They face the death penalty if convicted.
