New evidence implicates Syria in Hariri death - UN
(Reuters)
Updated: 2005-12-13 08:30

A U.N. inquiry on Monday reported it had fresh evidence to reinforce earlier findings of Syrian involvement in the murder of former Lebanese prime minister Rafik Hariri and said Damascus had hindered the probe.

The report presented to the U.N. Security Council by German Prosecutor Detlev Mehlis also said that Syria had burned some papers relating to Lebanon and pressured one witness to recant his testimony.

It said there were 19 suspects, whom it did not name, including five witnesses questioned by U.N. investigators in Vienna this month.

The Security Council has demanded that Syria cooperate fully with the investigation or face "further action" which could lead to sanctions. It will hear from Mehlis on Tuesday.

"That is not cooperation," the U.S. ambassador to the U.N., John Bolton, told reporters, after reading sections of the report. "That is obstruction of justice by the government of Syria." He said no decision had been made on further action in the council.

Hours before the report was delivered, a prominent lawmaker and fierce critic of Syria, Gebran Tueni, was killed in a car bomb in Beirut, along with his driver and bodyguard.

A report by Mehlis in October implicated top Syrian security officials and their Lebanese allies in the death of Hariri and 22 others in a truck bombing on February 14 in Beirut.

"In the interval since the presentation of that report, the investigation has continued to develop multiple lines of inquiry which, if anything, reinforce those conclusions," Mehlis said on Monday.
