March 14 MPs withdrew from the September 16 evening session of the Parliamentary Budget and Finance Commission to prevent it from reaching quorum when March 8 coalition MPs called for voting on a 2010 state budget clause pertaining to Lebanon’s funding of the STL.
Tension ran high in Lebanon after reports said that the STL would soon issue its indictment in the 2005 assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.
Following Monday’s cabinet session, Information Minister Tarek Mitri told reporters that the ministers asked Justice Minister Ibrahim Najjar to distribute copies of his report on false witnesses so the issue could be discussed in a future cabinet session.
On August 18, the cabinet delegated Najjar to prepare a report on false testimonies in the international investigation into the Rafik Hariri murder.
