The National News Agency quoted on Tuesday Tawhid Movement leader Wiam Wahhab as saying that no one can promote the indictment of the Special Tribunal for Lebanon, which is investigating the 2005 murder of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.
“No authority, no matter what it may be, can promote the indictment. For [the indictment] is rejected because it is lying verdict like those who [issue] it and like those who sent it to us and like those who are trying to market it in Lebanon today,” said Wahhab.
“Their project will not succeed, otherwise the whole region will turn into a volcano that will blow up in the face of those criminals,” he added.
The new Lebanese cabinet—headed by Prime Minister Najib Mikati—was formed on June 12 after almost five months of deliberations between the March 8 parties.
Before bringing down Saad Hariri’s cabinet in January, Hezbollah had been pressing him to disavow the STL, which is likely to implicate members of the Shia group.
