July 25, 2010 - Now Lebanon - Alain Aoun: STL has lost its credibility

Change and Reform bloc MP Alain Aoun told LBCI television on Sunday that the Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) has lost its credibility.

He said that the Free Patriotic Movement – which he is a part of – and Hezbollah’s views on the STL come based on their assumption that the STL’s investigations are suspicious.

The tribunal is probing the 2005 assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri. There are reports that some Hezbollah members might be named in the indictment.

Change and Reform bloc leader MP Michel Aoun accused the STL on Saturday of not searching for the real culprits behind the killing of Hariri.

Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah recently accused the tribunal of being an “Israeli project” designed to target the Resistance by stirring up sectarian strife in Lebanon.
