The Dangerous “Israeli” Spy: Worshipped Money, Monitored Sayyed Abbas’s Convoy
Al-Akhbar, 22-01-2013
He is one of the most dangerous "Israeli" spies unveiled in the recent years in Lebanon. This conclusion hides many of the coming details. A. Y. isn't only the most expensive "Israeli" agent but one of the most dangerous ones. Out of the 23 years of open service to the Zionist entity, till Tuesday, all the revealed crimes were limited to only 8 years of the treason journey. One third of the trip's duration was sufficient to describe him by "the fat agent".
According to al-Akhbar Lebanese daily, the Lebanese military judge Imad Zein continued investigating with Y.
"The agent admitted he began dealing with the "Israeli" intelligence in 1990, when he was working in the trade of Antiquities," the daily mentioned. It further revealed some details on the man's journey with "Israel".
On a business trip to New York, Y. met an American Jew Antiques dealer. Time passed and the American trader informed Y. of another dealer in Cyprus, who might bring a lot of profit and wealth to the Lebanese man. The latter didn't hesitate. He packed his bags and traveled to Cyprus, where he met with the supposed merchant: An officer in the "Israeli" intelligence service. The Mossad officer knew that Ali Y. was an employee in the Lebanese Work Ministry. As he offered Y. to work with him, the Lebanese man agreed without hesitation.
Al-Akhbar daily also unveiled that "investigators with the "Israeli" agent are now convinced that he loves more than any other thing in the world."
Y. underwent training courses on communication skills, decoding codes, and advantaging from communications devices. He used to meet with the "Israeli" officers every six months. Every time, he earned between 10 and 15 thousand US dollars. Until his arrest, a few months ago, the total man's income from collaboration with the Mossad reached approximately 600 thousand US dollars.
Y. used to meet the "Israeli" officers in different countries, including Greece [Athens], Italy [Rome], Cyprus and Thailand. He even entered the occupied Palestinian territories for several times via a fake passport. There, he met with Mossad officers in Tel Aviv and Haifa, and used luxurious apartments.
During the investigation, Y. admitted that he was tasked to monitor the former Secretary-General of Hizbullah, Leader martyr Sayyed Abbas Moussawi, who was assassinated in 1992.
Two years on his collaboration, the "Israeli" agent transferred to his employers information on Moussawi's movements: the nature and track of his convoy, and the parking place of the martyr's car as well as its position within the convoy.
According to al-Akhbar, the level of Y.'s involvement in the assassination will be revealed in the coming days.
Everything he said in court until Tuesday was up to 1998. The coming days will reveal his role during the subsequent years. He was also commissioned to monitor Sheikh Subhi Tufaili, Sheikh Mohammed Yazbek, and other leaders of Hizbullah in the Bekaa region.
He was also tasked to monitor Amal movement officials in a lesser manner. Based on the man's confession, he was assigned to a long period of time to monitor Syrian army troops deployed in the Bekaa, particularly the intelligence centers.
In a later era, he provided information about the resistance's wired network, which "Israel" has benefited from specifically during its 2006 aggression against Lebanon.
During the long journey of treason, Y. offered valuable information to the "Israelis". He even benefited from his work in the Works Ministry. Sources told al-Akhbar: "He provided the "Israeli" with a comprehensive survey to the Bekaa region."
They would offer him aerial images and he would identify targets on the ground. He held many meetings with experts in aerial photographs in Tel Aviv.
Thus, the "Israelis" greatly appreciated the value of the information provided by their agent since the amount of money he had received is huge compared to other agents. "Israel" even held a special honoring ceremony for Y.
Y., who worshipped money, was apparently one of the most honest agents with his employers. In his confessions, the engineer appeared to have a considered self-confidence. He speaks in a good manner, and expresses himself clearly. The cold-blooded man was balanced, lucid, and aware of his words.
It is worth mentioning that the 67-year-old man suffers from some health problems. He has also retired from his job at the ministry about 3 years ago.
On another level, the Army Intelligence handed over Y. to the judiciary, after it investigated him.
This came after the resistance security provided the Army Intelligence that contributed to obtain confessions from the "Israeli" agent during the investigation. The sources further pointed out "In this case, there exists an important secret that cannot be revealed now."
Thus, it won't last long before Y. is indicted, especially that judge Zein issued a face-to-face memorandum to arrest him based on the articles 273 _ 274 _ 278 _ 285 _ 463 _ 463/454 of the Penal Code, which entail death penalty.
