Now Lebanon - Najjar orders follow-up into Sadr disappearance - February 24, 2011

Justice Minister Ibrahim Najjar requested the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Prosecutor General to follow up on the issue of the disappearance of Amal Movement founder Imam Moussa Sadr, according to a statement issued by Najjar’s press office on Wednesday.
Several Libyan officials in recent days have spoken about Sadr’s 1978 disappearance, with former Libyan envoy Major Abdel Meneem al-Houni saying in an interview published Wednesday in Al-Hayat newspaper that Sadr “was shot and killed during his visit to Libya in 1978.”
The Amal Movement – headed by Speaker Nabih Berri – has repeatedly said that Libya is responsible for Sadr’s disappearance.
