The suspected ringleader in the abduction of the seven Estonian cyclists, Wael Abbas, has been arrested by Syrian security forces.

Lebanese National News Agency reported that as Abbas was attempting to enter Syria through a false ID, he was arrested and handed over to Lebanon's General Security Department.


The Estonians were freed on July 14, almost four months since armed men abducted them as they entered Lebanon on a bicycle tour from Syria.
