Middle East • July 2011 • Views: 779
Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah has rejected indictments of four of its members over the 2005 assassination of Lebanon’s former PM, Rafiq Hariri.
He also said no power would be able to arrest the “honourable brothers”, who have not yet been named officially.
It was Nasrallah’s first reaction to the indictments issued by the Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) on Thursday.
The Shia Islamist movement has repeatedly denounced the UN-backed tribunal and vowed to retaliate.
