| 2010-09-10 |
| [An Nahar] Hizbullah has maintained its campaign against false witnesses in ex-PM Rafik Hariri's assassination case, demanding arrest of the architects behind the fake witnesses. "It is required to open the case file of the false witnesses so that there will be no distractions ... but to get to the 'big shots' whom we demand to go down when it is established that they had fabricated and made (their confessions)," Hizbullah's number two Sheikh Naim Qassem said in remarks published Thursday. "Therefore, we will follow-up on this issue which will lead to the arrest of the 'big shots,'" Qassem added. "It is time to hold accountable the perpetrators regardless of their beliefs or sects," he stresses. Qassem said Hizbullah awaits the "mechanism" to be decided by Cabinet following findings to be put forth by Justice Minister Ibrahim Najjar. |
