August 10, 2010 - Now Lebanon - Zahraman calls Nasrallah’s evidence general

Lebanon First bloc MP Khaled Zahraman told the Voice of Lebanon (VOL) radio station on Tuesday that the information Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyad Hassan Nasrallah presented during his Monday press conference is general.

Nasrallah presented alleged evidence—including footage he said came from Israeli Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) monitoring former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri and a confession from a suspected Israeli spy—in an aim to implicate Tel Aviv in the Hariri assassination.

“The Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) is the only [body authorized] to deal with this issue,” Zahraman said.

He also commented on Nasrallah’s UAV footage evidence, saying that Israel routinely monitors all of Lebanon, including political and security figures.

The MP asked Nasrallah to put his evidence in the STL’s hands, adding that the tribunal and the international investigators never ruled out the hypothesis that Israel might be behind the assassination.
