The man, who worked at a dairy factory in eastern Lebanon,
was detained late Monday. He was suspected of involvement in passing on
sensitive security information to Israel.
The Lebanese officials said on Wednesday no arrest warrant
was issued for the man and that he was released late on Tuesday, after
questioning. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity, in line with
regulations.
German Foreign Ministry spokesman Dirk Augustin says the
Lebanese questioned the man but launched no proceedings against him.
Since last year, Lebanese authorities have arrested more
than 50 people suspected of collaborating with archenemy Israel.
