Three unidentified persons have hurled bombs in different parts of the northern Lebanese city of Tripoli.

Tension is already up in the Arab country after a video was circulated showing the torture of inmates in Beirut’s Roumieh prison at the hands of two prison guards.

A number of angry youth blocked al Abda road in Akar region in northern Lebanon by setting fire to tires in protest at the video.

Lebanon's Mufti Sheikh Abdel Latif Darian has, meanwhile, condemned the torture scenes, stressing that such incidents constitute an "abuse of humanity".
