A meeting between Mehlis, Sinioura

Chairman of the UN investigation committee to the assassination of the former Lebanese prime minister Rafiq al-Hariri, Detlev Mehlis on Wednesday held a meeting with the prime minister Fouad Sinioura. No news were reported on the content of the meeting.

The Lebanese minister of Justice, Charles Rizk, who had met with Mehlis on later Tuesday evening said that what the German investigator told him during the meeting was so important that made it imperative for the prime minister to meet urgently with Mehlis.

Worthy mentioning that Mehlis, who will submit his report in October, had concluded in Damascus interrogation of senior Syrian officials to the assassination of al-Hariri, including the current minister of the interior and former chairman of the Syrian intelligence forces in Lebanon Ghazi Kanaan, his successor Maj. Gen. Rostom Ghazaleh.
