Now Lebanon - Lebanese authorities report to STL - August 09, 2011


The Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) issued a statement Tuesday that Lebanese authorities submitted a report to the tribunal on the measures taken to apprehend and hand over the four men indicted by the tribunal for the 2005 assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.
“Prosecutor General Said Mirza submitted his report today. He stated that so far none of the four people who are accused has been detained,” a statement on the STL’s website said.
“STL President Judge Antonio Cassese, will now consider the report carefully and will in due course make a determination on the next steps.”
After the STL indicted four members of the Iranian- Syrian-backed Hezbollah group in connection to the Hariri murder, Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah ruled out their arrest.
