The arrest comes two days after a court in Beirut charged 10 men with planning to carry out attacks on US fast food chains in Lebanon. The government is currently holding 35 people indicted by the state for bombing or planning to bomb US and British targets in Lebanon between May 2002 and April 2003. Most of them are Lebanese, but Egyptian, Saudi and Yemeni nationals are believed to be among those detained.
