July 9, 2010 - Now Lebanon - Sarkozy to Hariri: Nasrallah’s possible rejection of STL indictment unacceptable

An anonymous French source told As-Safir newspaper in an interview published on Friday that French President Nicolas Sarkozy told Prime Minister Saad Hariri in a past meeting that Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah’s possible rejection of a Special Tribunal for Lebanon’s (STL) indictment is unacceptable.

The tribunal is investigating the 2005 assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.

The source said that Sarkozy’s statement came after Hariri told him that Nasrallah recently said during a meeting with the PM that he will reject the STL’s indictments if they are against Hezbollah members.
