A dangerous terrorist veteran confessed he had been plotting to occupy towns in the northern district of Dinniyeh as part of a broader scheme to connect Syria’s Qalamun to the Lebanese coast.

Ahmad Salim Mikati, nicknamed Abul Hoda, told interrogators about his plan to establish an “Islamic emirate” straddling the four towns of Bakhoun, Asoun, Sir al-Dinniyeh and Bqaa Safrine, given that security there is loose.

The scheme was as follows: Mikati makes the preparations, Lebanese and Syrian members in Dinniyeh barrens provide material support, and others who exit in other places prepare for zero hour, and at the same time Lebanese army soldiers would defect after being contacted by Mikati so as to join militants’ ranks.

Security sources told Al-Manar TV that the investigations are focusing on the following questions:

Who are Mikati’s partners?
Would the scheme of occupying some towns in Dinniyeh district be executed in line with the scheme of announcing an emirate in Tripoli?
Who are the soldiers whom Mikati prompted to defect from the Lebanese army?
What is the relation between Mikati and Al-Mustaqbal MP Khaled Al-Daher and was Daher acknowledged with Mikati’s schemes?

The sources said security agencies are aware of the people who are in connection with Mikati and that investigations are underway to find and arrest them.
