Former Minister Claims Widespread Corruption in Libyan Government

Samira Al-Ferjani, Libyan Former Minister of Social Affairs, has asserted rampant corruption in Libya, claiming that “nothing remains intact in the country.”

In a Facebook post, Al-Ferjani expressed, “The truth has prevailed, and falsehood has vanished. This is a clear picture for everyone who insulted and attacked us in a vile manner when we said that there is a tremendous forgery in the civil registry followed by falsification in the national number.”

She continued, “some people came out on their Facebook pages and in the media to deny these statements, to lie about us and insult us.”

Al-Ferjani added, “thank God, after years, a committee has been formed to investigate and verify the forgery, and here are only the preliminary results. The committees are still working and will finish their work before Ramadan. You will be shocked by the tremendous number of forgeries. May God curse the forgers and the liars.”

Concluding her statement, she highlighted that “the Attorney General says that 11,823 family records are forged after reviewing only 20% of the records. Imagine how many there would be if all the records were reviewed?!”

Libya spends billions of Libyan dinars annually on treating its citizens abroad, due to the weakness of its domestic healthcare system. However, this sector is often marred by corruption, and exploited by some Libyans and individuals in foreign countries for illegitimate financial gains.

A recent corruption case was uncovered in a report by the German newspaper Stuttgart & Umgebung. The report highlights a financial scandal involving manipulated medical treatment costs for 370 injured Libyans, as seen in the Stuttgart Regional Court.

The German judge presiding over the case, Hans-Jürgen Wenzler of the Stuttgart Regional Court’s 20th Chamber for Economic Crimes, described the situation as a “pigsty.” He pointed to the chaos and embezzlement that pervaded the case, where invoices were tampered with, and bribes were hidden in inflated treatments, with millions of euros being suspiciously transferred.
