Premier Najib Miqati does not intend to make any suggestion on the clause of the Special Tribunal for Lebanon in the draft policy statement before holding talks with Hizbullah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, al-Mustaqbal daily reported Friday.

The final decision on the controversial clause is awaiting a meeting between Miqati and Nasrallah, the newspaper said.

The Justice Palace in Baabda was evacuated on Friday after a bomb threat that turned out to be a hoax, media reports said.

The National News Agency said that a call was made on Friday morning threatening to blow up the building while Judge Faisal Haidar was holding judicial hearings.

Prime Minister Najib Miqati on Friday urged President Bashar Assad to “speed up the implementation of reforms,” stressing that the new government will deal with the displaced Syrians from a humanitarian aspect.

Miqati said during an interview with al-Arabiya television network that his government will treat the Syrian refugees “away from any political aspect.”

The March 14-led opposition would launch a National Council whose mission is to follow-up political developments, assess them and take the appropriate stance, a March 14 leader told al-Mustaqbal daily published Friday.

The leader, who refused to be identified, said March 14 officials who met at the Center House on Wednesday agreed on confronting the Hizbullah-led March 8 with all democratic means given that PM Najib Miqati's cabinet was formed due to the presence of illegal arms.

Hizbullah Secretary-General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah is expected to deliver a televised speech at 8:30 p.m. Friday on the latest developments in Lebanon and the region, Hizbullah’s Media Relations Department announced.

An Nahar newspaper reported on Friday that the Israeli military exercises along the Lebanese border will constitute a main part of Nasrallah’s speech.

President Michel Suleiman and Free Patriotic Movement leader Michel Aoun have narrowed their differences and would meet at dinner in Amsheet next month during a ceremony sponsored by Maronite Patriarch Beshara al-Rahi, An Nahar daily reported Friday.

FPM sources denied that the rapprochement was mediated by foreign parties, saying “Suleiman made the initiative to restore relations (with Aoun) after he felt a regress in the capabilities of the March 14 forces.”

The indictment of the Special Tribunal for Lebanon will be issued before the Lebanese cabinet’s policy statement is announced or prior to the parliament’s vote of confidence, sources told al-Liwaa newspaper on Friday.

“The release of the indictment is just a matter of time, and might take the government by surprise,” the sources said.

Israel’s Ambassador to the U.N. has dubbed Lebanon as a country that has opened its borders for smuggled weapons, warning that the Jewish state would not withdraw from the border village of Ghajar as long as Hizbullah continues to arm itself.

Ambassador Ron Prosor said following a Security Council session on the situation in the Middle East on Thursday that “Lebanon would be best defined as the open border for smuggled ammunition and arms.”

Pro- and anti-Syrian regime sit-ins were held by scores of protestors in different districts of the northern city of Tripoli on Friday as the army and security forces took strong measures to prevent clashes.

Interior Minister Marwan Charbel has ordered security forces to take “extraordinary measures.” He told An Nahar daily that he ordered the measures after he was informed that several sit-ins were planned to protest Syrian President Bashar Assad’s crackdown on protestors.

Hizbullah on Thursday condemned life jail terms imposed in Bahrain against Shiite opposition activists who have taken part in anti-government protests in the Sunni-ruled kingdom.

“These repressive measures expose the mentality of the Bahraini authorities, which rejects any attempt to reform the political system, and highlight the falsehood of their claims on seeking dialogue with the Bahraini people’s representatives, who are being dragged to jails and subjected to oppression and torture,” Hizbullah said in a statement.
