 A top UN official has said the commission investigating Rafiq al-Hariri's murder had still not received an official response from Damascus about UN demands to interrogate Syrian officials at the panel's Lebanon base. A Syrian official said on Wednesday, however, that Damascus has proposed that the UN commission chief Detlev Mehlis interview Syrians at UN offices on the Golan Heights. The Golan Heights have been occupied by Israel since 1967. Mehlis, a German prosecutor, reportedly wants to interview six top Syrian security officials at its offices in Monteverde, east of Beirut, over the former Lebanese prime minister's killing in a February bomb blast. |
