The Lebanese arrested the Palestinian student Manar Salah Abu Seyam, aged 14, for illegally entering Lebanon.
Manar, a resident of Yarmouk Camp in Syria, was arrested after Lebanese policemen shwoed up at al-Sahel Hospital, where she was admitted so as to be treated from injuries sustained in a road accident some three days earlier, along with other students, on their way back home from the UNRWA-run Haifa School, in Beer Hasan, in Beirut.
Eye-witnesses said the girl was arrested at the hospital, pending her trial and deportation to Syria.
Several Palestinians from Syria were sent back to Syria from Lebanon after the Lebanese government opted for a closed-door policy.
