Libya’s prosecutor general ordered the detention of the country’s ambassador to Brussels on Tuesday over alleged corruption, shortly after the internationally recognised government in Tripoli dismissed her.
According to the office of prosecutor Al-Seddik al-Sour, Amel Jerary was questioned about “administrative and financial abuses,” allegedly used to “obtain illicit material advantages by illegally seizing public funds and causing harm to public interest”,
Noting “the relevance of the evidence” against the ambassador, Al-Sour charged her and ordered her provisional detention, the office said in a statement, without mentioning her whereabouts.
