Special Tribunal for Lebanon in Action, Four Generals Released

We are starting to get some judicial activity at the Special Tribunal for Lebanon. Here is its website: http://www.stl-tsl.org/action/home. Earlier this week, the Pre-Trial Judge ordered the release of four generals who have been in detention for years awaiting prosecution by the Tribunal. It was on an application from the Prosecutor, who said he did not have enough evidence and that the generals were not even serious suspects. The decision and the motion have not yet been posted, howver. A website called ‘Arab Media Shack’ has an article on this: http://arabicsource.wordpress.com/2009/04/29/release-the-generals/.
