| UNSMIL chief suggests ‘joint tribunals’ for Libyan war crimes |
| 2017-11-17 |
| [Libya Herald] The international community should consider joint tribunals to try Libyan war crimes suspects to end the impunity with which individuals are operating UNSMIL chief Ghassan Salamé has told said the UN Security Council. In in his second report to Salamé also called for a review of the management of Libya’s frozen assets, which he claimed was causing the country the "silent loss" of hundred of millions of dollars. "Freezing the assets is one thing", he said, "however, their mismanagement is another. We should revisit how Libya’s external wealth and investments are taken care of, so that they are not silently and gradually lost for future generations". Impunity and lawlessness continued to prevail across the country, he warned, with increasingly heinous crimes being committed every day. He cautioned that murders such as the recent killings by button men in Abyar and Wirshefana and the civilian dead from the Derna "However, man does not live by words alone, despite the fact that sometimes he has to eat them... I cannot ignore that such events take place across the country with alarming regularity and I cannot accept that repeated calls for justice go unattended". |
