Al-Liwaa newspaper quoted on Tuesday an unnamed judicial source as saying that the judiciary can launch an investigation based on Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah’s Monday press conference.
Nasrallah presented alleged evidence—including footage he said came from Israeli Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) monitoring former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri and confessions from suspected Israeli spies—in an aim to implicate Tel Aviv in the Hariri assassination.
The government does not have the jurisdiction to deal with Nasrallah’s data because its role is executive, the source said. Nasrallah said last night that he did not present the information to the Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) because he does not trust it, and instead hopes the government takes action on his evidence.
The source added that the Lebanese judiciary can take the Hezbollah chief’s information and hand it to the international investigation commission to prove its validity.
