UN sleuths find new evidence in Hariri killing

UN investigators probing the 2005 assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik al-Hariri said on Tuesday they had found new information that expanded their list of suspects. Their report comes as UN efforts to bring Hariri'skillers to justice gather pace.

Last week, Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon announced that a special tribunal to try the case would be set up in The Hague on March 1. The report, authored by chief investigator Daniel Bellemare of Canada, also said his Beirut-based team found fresh clues to where the suicide bomber responsible for Hariri's death came from, although it gave no further details.
