New Brunswick potato farmer Henk Tepper has been released from a Lebanese jail after being held for more than a year on accusations of exporting rotten potatoes to Algeria.
Sen. Pierrette Ringuette says that Tepper will arrive in Ottawa later today.
“The Tepper Family is extremely happy to have been informed by the Government of Lebanon that Henk Tepper is no longer being detained in Beirut and is currently on a plane back to Canada,” the New Brunswick senator said.
