Gunmen attacked the house of a Libyan MP, Sarah Al-Suweih with grenades and RPG’s, west of the capital, Tripoli.

MP Al-Suweih said that her house was targeted twice on Friday and Saturday. She noted that the attack occurred while her family members were inside the house, but no causalities were reported.

“The attack caused a state of panic and fear, including the neighbours and the residents of the area,” she said.

“My house was destroyed. There is no reason for this attack other than that I practice democracy,” she concluded.

The Libyan Parliament condemned the attack. “Such attacks, which are carried out by outlaws, will not discourage MP’s from exercising their parliamentary duties,” it said in a statement.

The Parliament called on the Attorney General to “take legal measures regarding the incident,” according to the statement.

On Monday, the body of Libyan national, Kamal Bediri, who works in the administrative control department, was found shot dead in his car, near the People’s Hall in the Libyan capital, Tripoli.

Sources close to Bediri also said that his colleague, Muhannad Al-Ayadi disappeared under mysterious circumstances.

Notably, Tripoli has witnessed a series of assassinations and kidnappings, amid a security collapse and complete control by militias in the west of the country.

Safety in Libya’s capital, Tripoli is continuously deteriorating, with threats of kidnapping and murder a daily occurrence for residents.

Over the years, kidnappings, arrests, and assassinations have increased substantially in western Libya. This is evident in the repeated statements of the Ministry of Interior, about the arrest of gangs and individuals involved in the kidnapping and extortion of expatriate workers.

In late October, the Head of the Zaher Al-Jabal Police Station, Abdel-Salam Abdullah Abdel-Nabi, was assassinated by unknown assailants. Just days before, a policeman was assassinated in the same city. Despite this happening in full view of everyone, those at the helm of power do not move a finger to identify the perpetrators. The security authorities do not move to arrest them, or announce their names.
