On April 24, 2014, the Special Tribunal for Lebanon (the Tribunal) issued [3] an order lifting confidentiality on a decision [4] of January 31, 2014 which directed that two journalists and two media organizations be charged with contempt of court and obstruction of justice in relation to the Prosecutor v. Ayyash et al. case under Rule 60 bis (A) [5] of the Tribunal’s Rules of Procedure and Evidence. According to the press release [6], “[t]he charges follow an investigation into three events by an amicus curiae . . . who was appointed by the Registrar on the request of the Contempt Judge.” The charges relate to “publishing information on purported confidential witnesses” which “may amount to interference with the administration of justice, because it reduces the confidence of both actual witnesses and the public, in the ability and the will of the Tribunal to protect its witnesses.” In the same order, the Tribunal also lifted confidentiality on two summonses to appear [7]. The accused are scheduled to appear before the Tribunal for their initial appearances on May 13, 2014.
