SOLIDA has been active since 1996 in the struggle against arbitrary detention, enforced disappearance and the impunity of those perpetrating gross human violations.

July 17, 2010 - Now Lebanon - Dib: Those behind the STL are not credible

Change and Reform bloc MP Hikmat Dib told OTV on Saturday that those behind the Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) are not credible.

This comes after Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said on Friday that an indictment by the STL is an Israeli project designed to target Hezbollah by stirring up sectarian strife in Lebanon.

The MP also said that the telecommunications issue is very important for the STL because it provides the only valid evidence the tribunal has for its case.

March 8 coalition figures have claimed the STL’s case is based on information acquired from the telecommunications networks in the country, adding that the tribunal’s evidence is faulty because of the alleged Israeli spies who worked on the networks.

Three Alfa telecom employees have been arrested since June on suspicions of having spied for Israel.

Dib added that Nasrallah made his speech to uncover and abort any scheme behind the tribunal and its indictment.
