BEIRUT: A 20-year old man has confessed to raping seven minors after luring them with money, Lebanon’s Internal Security Forces said in a statement Monday.
The arrest came after a Lebanese father approached police in the northern city of Tripoli Thursday, claiming that the 20-year-old man, who was identified by his initials M.M., raped his 13-year-old son.
As a result of comprehensive investigation, police were able to arrest the man on March 8 where he worked at a car wash in Tripoli's Abi Samra neighborhood.
During interrogation, the man confessed to raping the 13-year-old along with six other minors after he used to offer them money ranging from $2,000 to $5,000.
This is second serial pedophilia case in less than year. In August, police apprehended a 28-year-old man in the Ashrafieh district of Beirut who confessed to raping as many as 10 children including the 16-year-old boy who reported the abuse.
