BEIRUT: Security forces have confiscated 10 stolen vehicles after raiding a private garage and a Syrian refugee camp in the northeastern town of Arsal, the Internal Security Forces said Monday.
In a statement, the ISF said a police unit reclaimed six stolen four-wheel drive vehicles from a garage in Wadi Hmayyed in Arsal on March 29.
“After receiving additional information [about stolen vehicles], a unit in Arsal raided a Syrian refugee camp in the town and confiscated four stolen vehicles,” the statement said.
The vehicles were identified as a white Opel, a white Chevrolet pick-up truck, a black Kia, and a silver Renault with a license plate.
The investigation is ongoing under the supervision of the judiciary to verify the owners of the vehicles.
Most of the vehicles used in previous car bombings in the past few months were stolen and some of them were rigged with explosives in Arsal, where town officials enjoy close links with the Syrian opposition.
