Major General Ashraf Rifi stressed Saturday that the Special Tribunal for Lebanon, which kicked off its sessions last week, will reveal all the criminals involved in the assassination of late former Prime Minister Rafiq Hariri and “other symbols of the struggle for freedom and independence,” noting that martyr Wissam Eid had a role in unveiling main leads in Hariri assassination case.
On another note, Rifi urged the security and military apparatuses in Tripoli to deploy every effort to maintain security and stability, to protect the citizens and to prevent any tension from breaking the safety.
In this context, he pointed out that the beneficiaries from creating strife in Lebanon are those who seek to illustrate the Sunnis as terrorists who target the minorities.
“The Syrian regime and its allies are the terrorists who support extremism while promoting it in Lebanon and the region in order to protect their dictatorial regime.”
