STL Appoints New Investigator to Deal with Contempt Charges

Leidschendam, 10 April 2014 – The Registrar of the Special Tribunal for Lebanon, Daryl Mundis, has appointed Mr Kenneth Scott as the new amicus curiae to deal with the contempt charges currently before the STL.
Mr Scott, a Harvard graduate, has extensive experience in international law, having served as Trial Attorney at the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia for over ten years.
Mr Scott replaces the previous amicus curiae assigned to investigate the 29 April allegations of contempt, Mr Stéphane Bourgon. Mr Bourgon has returned to Montréal Canada before the end of his assignment as amicus curiae after having been appointed as Crown Prosecutor working on organised crime trials.
The core staff of the amicus curiae team will continue to work for the new amicus.
