- Details Available Now at CBC.ca/ The National Broadcast Premieres

In a worldwide exclusive, CBC News and Radio-Canada have uncovered
startling new information about the ongoing UN investigation into the
assassination of Rafik Al-Hariri, the former prime minister of Lebanon -
including confidential documents the UN wanted CBC to seek their permission
to publish before making public.

Getting Away With Murder reveals for the first time the identity of the
senior Hariri insider that UN investigators suspect had prior knowledge of
the attack, documented evidence against Hezbollah - the main suspect in the
assassination, the efforts of Hezbollah to subsequently frustrate the
investigation and the tragic story of the young Lebanese police officer who
cracked the case only to be killed days after agreeing to work with the UN
commission.

Armed with never-before-revealed UN documentary evidence and
identity-protected interviews with those directly involved in the special
commission, Getting Away With Murder is the culmination of months of
investigation by longtime CBC News and former Middle East correspondent Neil
Macdonald.

The special documentary will be broadcast on CBC News's The National on
Monday November 22 at 9:00pm and 11:00pm ET/PT on CBC News Network and at
10:00pm (10:30 NT) on CBC Television.

This special broadcast is coupled with an extensive online report
available now at cbc.ca/thenational. It details meticulously the failures of
the UN commission tasked with getting to the bottom of the investigation,
only weeks before indictments are expected to be handed down from the Hague.
Details of what UN investigators suspected and who they were kept from
questioning will be revealed for the first time.
