200 days after Hariri's killing...


The mosque behind me shows the place where ex Prime Minister Rafic Hariri is buried.

I’m not sure how much of this news was covered in Brazil, however the UN Commission that is investigating his killing released an initial report last week and five suspects were arrested – all of them had top security posts and were responsible for the country security.

While Detlev Mehlis, the UN representative in charge of the investigation, was giving a press conference in Beirut, it was aired live on CNN. The international pressure on this issue made it so important that having such officials really being arrested is something completely new in this part of the world.
