May 21, 2010 - Now Lebanon - New accusations from Siddiq stir Hezbollah lawsuit, As-Safir reports

As-Safir newspaper reported on Friday that Hezbollah has filed a lawsuit against Mohammad Zuhair as-Siddiq, for new accusations that the group’s members were involved in the 2005 assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.

Kuwaiti newspaper As-Seyassah reported last month that Siddiq, a Syrian agent who allegedly misled the UN probe into Hariri’s murder, had resurfaced in Europe after serving jail time in the Gulf. In that article, he renewed previous claims that Syrian and Lebanese leaders were involved in the late prime minister’s assassination, but added this time that Hezbollah was also involved.

As-Safir newspaper reported that Hezbollah’s lawsuit, which was filed with the public prosecutor in Beirut, cites Siddiq’s interview with As-Seyassah.
