STL: Release of Indictment Has Nothing to do with Developments in Lebanon
Special Tribunal for Lebanon spokesman Marten Youssef stated that Pre-Trial Judge Daniel Fransen is still studying Prosecutor Daniel Bellemare’s indictment, stressing that the release of the indictment has nothing to do with the developments in Lebanon and the region.
He told Sada al-Balad in remarks to be published on Friday that the beginning of the trial proceedings are connected to the release of the indictment and the amendments that were introduced to it.
In addition, he said that the defense should be given enough time to study the evidence and indictment before the beginning of the trial.
