The Lebanese Army announced the killing of the coordinator of the Lebanese Forces Party in the Jubail region, Pascal Suleiman, at the hands of a Syrian robbery gang.
The army said in a statement published on its account on the And they transported his body to Syria.”
The statement added that the Army Command coordinated with the Syrian authorities to hand over the body, and investigations are being completed under the supervision of the Public Prosecution.
Following up on the case of the kidnapped Pascal Suleiman, the Army Intelligence Directorate was able to arrest most of the Syrian gang members involved in the kidnapping. During their investigation, it became clear that the kidnapped person was killed by them while they were trying to steal his car in the Jbeil area, and that they transported his body to Syria.

With the Lebanese Army announcing the killing of the official in the Lebanese Forces Party, a state of anger prevailed in the Lebanese street, which had a negative impact on the Syrian refugees in some Lebanese areas.
After the army revealed the identity of the perpetrators, some Syrian refugees were beaten, as pioneers of the virtual world circulated a group of clips showing the attack on Syrians and the burning of their property in the Jbeil and Beirut region once morest the backdrop of the killing of Pascal Suleiman.

The army’s statement and clips of attacks on Syrians in Lebanon sparked a state of controversy among the audience on social media platforms regarding who was truly responsible for the assassination of Pascal Suleiman.
Some Lebanese tweeters held the Syrians responsible for Pascal’s killing by saying that Pascal’s murder should not go unnoticed, because it is not an ordinary crime in this time and place, pointing out that Lebanon’s security is above all considerations.
Murder should not pass #Pascal_Soliman Unnoticed. It is not an ordinary crime in this time and place. What we were warned regarding happened. Lebanon’s security is above all considerations.

Bloggers added that Pascal is a new victim of the escape of displacement and an attempt to tamper with the unity of the country, and all Lebanese must unite to confront the dangers of displacement and its repercussions on the country.
#Pascal_Soliman A new victim of displacement and an attempt to tamper with the country’s unity. Total reliance on the Lebanese Army, Army Intelligence, and the security and judicial agencies for protection from any internal strife. We must all unite to confront the dangers of displacement and its repercussions, which we have previously warned regarding.
My condolences to Pascal’s family, to his wife and children, and to the party…— Nada Boustani Khoury (@NadaBoustani) April 9, 2024
But there were those who had a different opinion, as one of the bloggers wrote, saying, “With regard to the issue of the reprehensible crime that targeted Pascal, and the issue of campaigns of incitement and treason, and spreading sedition, and assaulting those with whom they have no connection, neither closely nor remotely, or calls for the deportation of some of the components of Byblos, these actions and words need to be followed.” Long discussion.
On the subject of the reprehensible crime that took a long time #Pascal_Soliman It is necessary, first, to offer condolences to his family, his fans, and the people of his region. As for the issue of campaigns of incitement, treason, spreading sedition, attacking and beating those who have no relation to them, whether from near or far, or calls to deport some of the components of Jbeil, these actions and words need…

Tweeters asked how the gang was able to transport Pascal’s body from Lebanon to Syria and what was the benefit of transporting Pascal’s body following his killing, pointing the finger of blame at some parties inside Lebanon.
The real kidnapper is the criminal who carries weapons and uses them to gain power over the Lebanese and Syrians. He is the one who uses illegal crossings for smuggling, and he has a dark and long history of murder, criminality, and forming kidnapping and assassination gangs. #Pascal_Soliman All the Lebanese know who kidnapped him and are awaiting the official announcement of the names of the kidnappers and who…

Followers pointed out that the real goal was to kidnap Pascal, extract information, and then get rid of him. If the real goal had been to steal the car, he would not have been killed, his body transported to Syria, and his vehicle abandoned.
Others demanded that all surveillance cameras on the roads be returned, and that those who were watching Pascal and kidnap him be traced, pointing out that the Syrian refugee is innocent of this heinous act. According to what someone said.
If the target was to steal a car, they would not kill him, and if the target was only murder, they would have shot him without kidnapping, but the target of kidnapping is to extract information and then get rid of him.

Bloggers said that there is a difference between the Syrian regime and the Syrian refugees in Lebanon, and there is a difference between militias that follow a foreign agenda inside Lebanon and the Syrians, and there is a difference between criminals who transported a body within the borders of Syria and the Syrians, and they drew attention to the necessity of correcting the terminology so that it becomes clear who is the real criminal.

In turn, the Lebanese Forces Party’s media department issued a statement in which it said, “The crime is political, not criminal, and the official narrative is weak, fragile, and broken.”
The statement added that “Pascal’s kidnapping and killing had nothing to do with theft or the request for ransom, and no one asked for it,” noting that “the carrying out arm may be Syrian, but the implementation decision is political.”
