Report on Hariri Assassination Delayed
Majdoline Hatoum , a staff writer for The Daily Star of Lebanon, noted in a report in the paper's March 25, 2005 edition that, "UN Secretary General Kofi Annan has delayed the release of a UN report into the assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri, and failed to indicate when it would be made public.
"The decision by Annan came as Lebanese President Emile Lahoud said he "might" appeal to the international community to help "unveil the truth" about Hariri's murder against a backdrop of a series of bombings near Beirut in the last week which have left three people dead," Ms. Hatoum wrote. She said Mr. Annan "received the report into Hariri's death yesterday [March 24, 2005] from the UN fact-finding mission to Lebanon, led by Irish Deputy Police Commissioner Peter Fitzgerald.
Mr. Fitzgerald "was due to deliver the report to the UN Security Council last night, but decided to postpone the move at the last minute," The Daily Star noted, adding that, "a UN spokesperson in New York said: "The Secretary General just wanted a little bit more time to prepare the ground for this report." Here's more of the Hatoum Report.
