4. SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Saad Hariri, son of assassinated prime minister Rafic Hariri:
"And justice for the Beirut explosion is a demand by all Lebanese, don't push them towards confrontation."
Former Lebanese premier Saad Hariri says the family accepts the verdicts issued Tuesday by a UN-backed tribunal on the killing of his father 15 years ago.
Hariri told reporters in Leidschendam in the Netherlands: "The court has ruled." Now, he said, the family awaits the implementation of justice.
"Justice will be executed, regardless of how long it takes," he said.
Hariri demanded that truth and justice be also achieved for the Beirut blast on August 4.
The tribunal convicted one member of the Hezbollah militant group and acquitted three others of involvement in the 2005 assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.
