May 20, 2010 - Now Lebanon - Cassese clarifies Daily Star article

A clarification from President of the Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) Judge Antonio Cassese was published Wednesday in The Daily Star over an article written in the English-language daily two days earlier.

In an article titled “STL’s Bellemare to press charges in Hariri case by fall”, the paper reported on Monday that Cassese said STL Prosecutor Daniel Bellemare was likely to issue an indictment between September and December of this year.

However, Cassese’s clarification said charges “will depend on when the prosecutor determines there is enough evidence to support the submission of an indictment.”

“There are indications the prosecutor might submit an indictment by December 2010,” he added.
