STL Prosecutor Files Request to Amend Hariri Indictment
Special Tribunal for Lebanon Prosecutor Norman Farrell filed on Wednesday a “confidential motion seeking amendments to the present indictment in the Ayyash et al. Case”, announced the STL on Thursday.
The proposed amendments set out certain clarifications.
The timing of this filing follows a commitment made by the Office of the Prosecution during the Status Conference held by the Pre-Trial Judge on January 30, 2013.
The indictment was originally unsealed in August 2011.
It accused four Hizbullah members, Salim Ayyash, Mustafa Badreddine, Hussein Oneissi, and Assad Sabra of being involved in the February 2005 suicide car bomb attack in Beirut that killed former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri and 22 others, including the suicide bomber.
