Report: Indictment to be Issued in May
The indictment in ex-Premier Rafik Hariri’s assassination case could be issued by the Special Tribunal for Lebanon this month, political sources told An Nahar daily.
The sources said in remarks published Tuesday that the issue could further complicate the government formation process.
In March, STL Prosecutor Daniel Bellemare filed an amended indictment based on further evidence in the probe into the 2005 killing of Hariri.
The indictment, which is being kept confidential, is under examination by Belgian judge Daniel Fransen who has the responsibility of confirming it before arrest warrants or summonses are issued.
The first indictment, filed by Bellemare in January, is widely believed to name Hizbullah members.
