STL Appoints Investigator to Probe Unauthorised Disclosures

Acting Registrar of the Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) Daryl Mundis has appointed Mr Stéphane Bourgon, Ad.E., of Canada as amicus curiae to investigate the three events that are the subject of allegations of contempt.

The appointment follows the decision of the Contempt Judge David Baragwanath on 29 April 2013 to initiate proceedings in three incidents which could potentially be considered interference with the administration of justice through publication of alleged witness identities.

Mr Bourgon will report back to the Contempt Judge within the next few months on whether there are "sufficient grounds" to start contempt proceedings.

The Contempt Judge has also requested the Acting Registrar to appoint Mr Hugo Keith QC of the United Kingdom as amicus curiae to be available for consultation on specific issues in this context if needed.
