AMSTERDAM - A judge at the UN-backed tribunal investigating the 2005 killing of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik al-Hariri on Monday asked for a trial in absentia without the four fugitive Hezbollah suspects in attendance.

The Shi'ite Muslim group Hezbollah - which is backed by Iran and Syria - has denied any role in the 2005 bombing which killed Hariri, a billionaire Sunni Muslim politician, and 21 other people on the Beirut seafront.
