Haririâs Son Seeks International Trial
 The son of slain former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri called yesterday for an international trial of his killers as Syria pledged to continue cooperation with the ongoing UN inquiry. A day after a UN report implicated senior Syrian and Lebanese intelligence figures in Haririâs murder, the Lebanese government called the report a thoroughly professional work and the countryâs police said they had evidence of a wider Syrian plot to bomb its smaller neighbor. Haririâs son and political heir, Saad, said in a televised address to the Lebanese from his temporary residence in Jeddah, that he was seeking justice, not revenge. âWe call on the international community to uphold its support for the international commission into the assassination of Hariri to unearth the full truth and bring the perpetrators to justice in an international court,â he said.
