A group of Lebanese members of parliament on Tuesday called on the Arab summit in Algiers to support the international investigation into the assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik al-Hariri last month.

"We called on Arab leaders to take stand for the Lebanese people on forming an international committee in charge of investigating the crime." the group calling itself "future" said in a statement.

It regarded the formation of an international probing committee as a key precondition of finding the truth of the murder and solving the current political crisis.

The lawmakers also appealed to the United Nations Security Council to bring those behind the assassination to justice as soon as possible.

An UN investigating team which left Lebanon last week, is expected to announce initiative result on Thursday at the UN headquarters in New york.
