Development and Liberation bloc MP Yassine Jaber told Al-Markaziya news agency Tuesday that the argument pertaining to the false witnesses issue is heading toward a resolution that satisfies all parties.
March 8 politicians have called for the cabinet to task the Justice Council with investigating the issue of witnesses who gave false testimonies in the international investigation into former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri’s 2005 assassination. Some March 14 figures have said that the issue does not fall within the council’s jurisdiction and that false testimonies cannot be investigated until the Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) issues its indictment.
Jaber also said that Speaker Nabih Berri’s France visit comes within the latter’s efforts to protect Lebanon and find solutions to controversial matters.
Berri arrived in Paris on Monday evening for an official state visit to the French capital.
