Interior Minister Nuhad Mashnouq said Saturday the security plan in Lebanon was "crippled for political reasons" and has turned into a selective punishment mechanism.
He said the Lebanese government would not allow selective implementation of law and would enforce the law on everybody. He was speaking in the commemoration of the murder of Major-General Wessam Al-Hassan, head of the intelligence unit at the internal security authority.
He said confronting terrorism must take place through the state.
The government's security plan was launched early this year in the north of Lebanon then in eastern Bekaa. The plan succeeded in ending fightin between rival groups in Tripoli.
Al-Hassan was killed in a booby-trapped car in Beirut in 2012.
