Now Lebanon - Gemayel, Hariri discuss STL indictment - June 30, 2011

Kataeb Party leader Amin Gemayel received a phone call from former Prime Minister Saad Hariri on Thursday following the release of the Special Tribunal for Lebanon’s indictment, the National News Agency reported, adding that they discussed the indictment and the steps that will follow its release.
However, the report did not elaborate any further.
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 are named in the indictment of the STL which is investigating the 2005 assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.
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.
