Lebanese man suspected of spying for Israel

None

A Lebanese newspaper says authorities have detained a senior employee at one of the country's two cellular phone companies on suspicion of giving security information to Israel. The daily Ad-Diyar said the man was detained Thursday and was supplying Israel with "sensitive information."

 

A Lebanese security official confirmed the arrest Sunday but refused to give details about a possible link to the phone company. He spoke on condition of anonymity because no official statement was made. Israel had no comment. (AP)
