Beirut - Arab Today
The President of the Council of Ministers Saad Hariri said today: "We pray God to help us continue the path of martyr Major General Wissam Al Hassan, which is the message of Rafic Hariri to build the state and the institutions. The ISF is one of the institutions that must always be supported because it works directly with the citizen. And the Information Branch has done a lot in terms of security, whether in the fight against espionage or in counterterrorism."
Speaking during the inaugural ceremony of the "Martyr General Wissam Al Hassan Avenue", located in the port area, Hariri added: "Wissam paid the price. Those who hated him feared him. They were not able to stop his work so they killed him. But God does not forget, and those who killed Wissam will pay the price sooner or later. This is my promise to Abu Haider and his small family, and we are all one family, we will complete this journey together".
Question: What do you say to those who doubt that justice will follow its course?
Hariri: I tell them that justice is coming. I do not want to outbid on this subject and I will not talk about it, because it is shameful to talk about it. But be sure that those who killed Wissam al-Hassan will pay a high price, and I take it on myself, on the State and the Internal security forces and all security forces. Wissam is the son of this institution and his blood satiated this institution and this country. We must find his killers and bring them to justice. Whenever we will pass by this avenue, we will remember Wissam in his family moments. It is true he was a security man but he was very fond of the family, and those who know Wissam know what I am talking about. We ask God to enable us to continue his journey
