Prime Minister Saad Hariri commissioned Monday the Secretary General of the Higher Relief Commission, Major General Mohamed Khair, to initiate the necessary contacts with the Guinean authorities and the Lebanese Consul in Guinea to unveil the fate of young Lebanese expatriate, Hussein Fashikh (from Dinnieh), who has been reported missing since Sunday morning in one of the rivers of Guinea.
Fashikh was trying to rescue a Lebanese woman and an Egyptian from drowning as they were swimming in the river in the Conakry area of Guinea, when he got swept away by the river and is still missing as rescue teams continue to search for him.
In this context, Khair was assured by Guinean authorities of their keen concern over the incident, whereby they have dispatched a navy squad to speed up the search operation.
