Israeli Man who Jumped the Fence into Lebanon has Mental Disorder
Thursday, May 2nd, 2013The Israeli who jumped over the border fence at Rosh HaNikra and crossed into Lebanon Wednesday apparently has a mental order. Lebanese officials still are holding and questioning 34-year-old Simon Saadati, according to the Beirut Daily Star.
A representative of United Nations Interim Forces in Lebanon (UNIFIL) is present at the interrogation, the newspaper added.
“The Israeli can only speak Hebrew, which required the need for a translator and a psychiatrist who is examining if the man suffers from any mental disorder,” a source said. Saadati’s mother has said that her son has run away several times in the past.
