Now Lebanon - Nasrallah to address STL indictment by end of week, As-Safir reports - July 01, 2011

As-Safir newspaper reported on Friday that Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah will voice his party’s stance concerning the Special Tribunal for Lebanon’s (STL) indictment by the end of the week.
The report added that, so far, no official from the party has voiced a position on the indictment into the 2005 assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.
The STL said in a statement published on its website that the indictment and accompanying arrest warrants were transmitted to the Lebanese authorities on Thursday.
A judicial official told AFP that four Lebanese suspects were named in the STL’s indictment.
Local media said at least two of them were members of the Iranian and Syrian-backed Hezbollah, which has warned it would defend itself if accused.
