Syria’s interior minister, who was head of the country’s military intelligence in neighboring Lebanon for nearly 20 years, has committed suicide, according to Syrian ministers and the country’s official news agency.

Ghazi Kanaan‘s death was reported Wednesday, days before the expected release of a critical United Nations report into the assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.

“The minister of interior died in his office this afternoon after committing suicide and the authorities are investigating the incident,” Reuters quoted SANA the Syrian Arab News Agency as saying.
