Qaddafi’s People’s Hall again set on fire
[Libya Herald] The former People’s Hall between Tripoli
...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn...
’s Suq al-Thalath roundabout and Hay al-Andalus was again set on fire today. It is the fourth time since 2011 it has happened, the last time being just eight weeks ago.

The reasons are as yet unknown. Some locals have accused Haithem Tajouri
...Commander of the pro-(Islamist) government First Support Brigade...
’s Tripoli Revolutionaries Brigade of setting alight the building which once housed Qadaffy’s General People’s Congress. Others have accused the Mobile Forces which supports Khalifa Ghwell and is firmly opposed to Tajouri.

Yet others give a more prosaic explanation. They point out that the building, taken over by Tajouri just over a year ago, was then abandoned and is used by gangs as a drinking and drugs den. Now full of rubbish, it has been the scene of frequent fights.

It is suggested these fights may the real cause for the latest blaze.
