[2] On 12 July 2005, Murr and Baysarri were targeted by a circa 20-kg improvised explosive device in the city of Antelias.

His appointment as acting Director General was initially set for a period of 6 months or until a new president is elected and a new government is formed.

The medical committee of General Security approved the extension of Bayssari's commission for nine months, despite questions about his fitness due to injuries from the 2005 car bomb attack.

[5][8][9] In 2024, Bayssari's name was put forward by Qatar, represented by its special envoy to Lebanon Jassem al-Thani (Abu Fahd), who suggested his candidacy to fill in the presidential vacuum to succeed Michel Aoun.

He also has maintained good relations with all political groups in Lebanon which made him become considered by the Amal Movement and Hezbollah.
