Eastern Libya urged to halt executions
Amnesty International has released a report revealing the execution of 30 individuals in eastern Libya through arbitrary death sentences carried out during secret military trials based on confessions extracted under torture, amidst arrests in Benghazi and Derna between 2014 and 2018. The detainees were subjected to systematic torture using brutal methods such as electric shocks, burning, and beating, while being deprived of their legal rights and denied access to lawyers. At least two people were executed despite the military court having reduced their sentences to life imprisonment in 2019. Additionally, the authorities prohibited the victims’ families from receiving the bodies or holding funeral rites. The organization has called for an immediate halt to executions and the immediate abolition of these unjust military sentences.
