Speaker Nabih Berri’s political aide, MP Ali Hassan Khalil, told As-Safir newspaper in an interview published on Tuesday that “we still stand for the issue of false witnesses to be referred by the cabinet to the Justice Council”.
On August 18, the cabinet delegated Justice Minister Ibrahim Najjar to prepare a report on false testimonies in the international investigation into the 2005 murder of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.
Several March 8 figures have called for the issue to be referred to the Justice Council. Wednesday’s cabinet session is expected to address the issue of false testimonies.
