STL Trial Chamber Calls for Submissions on in Absentia Proceedings
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربيةThe Special Tribunal for Lebanon's Trial Chamber has issued a scheduling order, which requests written submissions relating to in absentia proceedings from the Office of the Prosecutor and each of the accused, said the STL in a statement.
“Since the accused have not yet appointed counsel the Trial Chamber has also asked the STL’s Defense Office to file submissions,” it added.
The deadline for all written submissions is November 2, 2011, it continued.
A public hearing will be held by the Trial Chamber at 10:00 on November 11, 2011, it stated.
“Journalists will be sent details of the accreditation process for that hearing in the coming days,” said the statement.
The scheduling order follows a request by Pre-Trial Judge Daniel Fransen for the Trial Chamber to make a determination whether in absentia proceedings should be initiated, it concluded.
On Thursday, General Prosecutor Saeed Mirza submitted a monthly report to a STL delegation on efforts to search for the four suspects accused of being involved the 2005 assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.
In July, the STL issued arrest warrants against four Hizbullah members accusing them of being involved in the assassination.
Lebanese authorities had 30 days to apprehend them, but they failed in their mission and the suspects remain at large.
Justice is coming and Hizb and its cronies Aoun and co. CANNOT stop it no matter why they do. M8s are doing what a low life crook does; hide the criminals, criticize the STL and cry injustice...Ya haram shou nawar!!!.
It took 42 years to get rid of Gaddafi the despot, a very long time indeed. It was a horrible death, but his end justified the means. It may take a long time to bring the killers/criminals to justice, but in the end, STL and justice will prevail.
the hallucinatory zionist information war department is trying to give meaning to something that has blown up and is forgotten
The Libyans hallucinated for 42 years that they will get rid of Gaddafi. It worked. Their mass hallucination turned into reality. Keep that in mind, Jabal infested with head lice.
the hallucinatory zionist information war department is comparing the criminal Ghadafi regime with our glorious resistance.
poor things.
