The GNA’s Ministry of Interior expressed its condemnation in the strongest terms in regards to the arrest of citizens arriving from the eastern region at Tripoli’s Mitiga International Airport on Friday.
“These acts committed by a group of people to serve their personal interests, they do not represent the Government of National Accord and do not serve the public interest of the country.” The ministry said.
The statement indicated that the Minister of Interior issued instructions to the director of Tripoli’s security and the head of the Criminal Investigation Agency to investigate the incident and take legal measures against the armed group that carried out the act.
