Taiwan investigators say there was no evidence that Taiwanese individuals or firms were involved in a deadly September attack targeting Hezbollah communications devices that exploded in Lebanon.
“Our investigation has verified that no nationals or domestic companies were involved in Lebanon’s high-profile pager detonation incidents,” Taiwan prosecutors say in a statement.
The pagers that exploded, in an attack blamed on Israel, appeared to have been made by Taiwan’s Gold Apollo.
Gold Apollo denied producing the devices and instead pointed the finger at its Budapest-based partner BAC Consulting KFT.
