Washington - AFP

A man suspected of killing former Lebanese prime minister Rafiq Hariri says the Lebanese government knows his whereabouts and would have arrested him a long time ago if it could. "The Lebanese authorities know where I live, and if they wanted to arrest me they would have done it a long time ago," the man, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told Time magazine. "Simply, they cannot." But the man, who presented himself as a member of the powerful Hezbollah militia, denied all responsibility for the 2005 killing, saying, "I am innocent of all charges against me." Hezbollah denied the existence of such an interview. The correspondent of Time "claims that he met with a Hezbollah official, and he found himself face to face with one of the four accused in the Hariri case and interviewed him," said a Hezbollah statement carried by the Lebanese state news agency. "No responsible party has met with the correspondent of Time, either alone or in the presence of a third party. The information is therefore unfounded and the alleged interview does not exist," it added. The magazine reported that the interview was conducted by one of its reporters, without identifying him. The location of the interview was also not mentioned. Four members of the radical Syrian-backed Hezbollah movement have been indicted for the massive 2005 car bomb attack that killed Hariri while his convoy was passing a Beirut hotel. Prosecutors have indicted Salim Ayyash, 47, Mustafa Badreddine, 50, Hussein Anaissi, 37 and Assad Sabra, 34, for the murder. In Lebanon, Prosecutor General Said Mirza has "categorically denied that the prosecution or the police are aware of the place of residence of any of the four suspects and have not proceeded with the arrests," according to a statement from Justice Minister Shakib Qortbawi. The prosecutor "informed the minister that he would pursue legal measures to ascertain the true identity of the person to whom these remarks were attributed," the statement said. Ayyash and Badreddine face five charges including that of "committing a terrorist act by means of an explosive device" and homicide, while Anaissi and Sabra face charges of conspiring to commit the same acts. The whereabouts of the four are currently unknown, with the UN-backed tribunal's president last Thursday calling for greater efforts to arrest the men. The tribunal said Wednesday it had enough evidence to try them.
