Former Information Minister Michel Samaha will be kept in custody over charges of smuggling explosives into Lebanon and planning attacks on anti-Syrian political and religious leaders in the north, according to Daily Star Newspaper.
A Lebanese court will issue its verdict in this case after two days.
Samaha was convicted of terrorism charges in May 2015 and was originally sentenced to nearly four years in prison.
He was released by the Military Court of Cassation on a nearly 100,000 dollars bail in January.
But following an outcry over the leniency of his sentence, the verdict was annulled and a retrial was ordered.
