Lebanese lawyers show support for Hariri tribunal Lebanese lawyers gathered in Beirut in Friday at the site of slain Lebanese Prime Minister Rafiq Hariri's grave to show support for the Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) underway in the Netherlands. Hariri, Lebanon's Sunni prime minister until his resignation in October 2004, was on his way home for lunch when a suicide bomber detonated a van full of explosives equivalent to 2.5 tonnes of TNT as his armoured convoy passed. The February 14, 2005 seafront blast killed 22 people including Damascus opponent Hariri and wounded 226, leading to the establishment by the UN Security Council of the STL in 2007.
