BEIRUT: The Special Tribunal for Lebanon Wednesday appointed a deputy registrar, Japanese national Kaoru Okuizumi.
The position has been vacant since the court’s Registrar, Herman von Hebel, was appointed in December 2010.
Okuizumi has extensive background in international criminal justice, having served in the registries of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia and the Special Court for Sierra Leone.
She arrives to the STL from the U.N. Department of Peacekeeping Operations in New York and will be working alongside von Hebel for the Tribunal.
