Maher al-Assad Is Angry! Thursday July 4th, 2019 by Al-Modon (Lebanese news website) Major General Maher al-Assad, brother of the president, is agitated by the investigations that have targeted some of his closest allies writes Al-Modon.
Excerpt:
The sources said that Major General Assad, one of the most powerful figures in Syria, had expressed anger recently at what had happened in terms of the prosecution of his office manager, Brigadier General Ghassan Bilal, and the businessman Naeem al-Jarah.
Bilal, who is Assad’s right hand and responsible for the Fourth Division Security Bureau, is one of the most prominent “contractors” carrying out profitable enterprises connected to the war economy, such as clearing rubble, resorting and selling the materials, and securing transport lines and controlling drug supply networks.
After freezing him and limiting his powers, Russians began to investigate Bilal through the Republican Palace Security Bureau in matters related to producing and trafficking drugs, in what is believed to be part of the Russian-Iranian dispute. The Fourth Division is generally considered to be more inclined toward the Iranians, and is responsible for crimes of sectarian cleansing against the opposition across Syria, and includes sectarian Shia fighting groups among its ranks.
The issue does not stop there. The businessman Naeem al-Jarah, one of the financial faces of Assad’s investments, has also been subjected to pressure from the Russians through the Republican Palace Security Bureau. Bilal’s issue is connected to Jarah through a factory in the al-Mohamidiyeh area on the outskirts of eastern Ghouta that manufactures drugs.
The Russian investigations proved that the Fourth Division Security Bureau’s involvement in transporting the primary materials for the manufacturing of drugs to the factory, which is owned by Jarah, by way of Damascus International Airport.
Major General Maher al-Assad, according to Al-Modon’s sources, has asked the Russians to withdraw all the Fourth Division forces previously sent to the Hama countryside to replace the Fifth Corps and Tiger Forces, after the latter stumbled in their battle against the opposition. Assad withdrew his previous approval for the Fourth Division forces to assist regime forces in this fighting, which explains the major confusion among the regime forces on this front.
