July 18, 2010 - Now Lebanon - Rahhal: Hezbollah officials’ STL statements raise doubts about party’s role in assassinations

Lebanon First bloc MP Riad Rahhal said on Sunday that recent statements by Hezbollah officials—including the group’s secretary general, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah—on the Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) raise doubts about Hezbollah’s involvement in a string of assassinations that rocked Lebanon since 2004, the National News Agency (NNA) reported.

“Hezbollah is the only party in Lebanon which speaks, casts doubts and accuses the STL of being an Israeli project, even though no-one has any information about the STL’s decision,” Rahhal said.

Nasrallah said in a speech on Friday that the STL is an Israeli project designed to target Hezbollah by stirring up sectarian strife in Lebanon.
