Tripoli Appeals Court Postpones Trial of Abdullah Al-Senussi

January 9, 2024
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The trial of Abdullah Al-Senussi, the former Libyan intelligence chief, has been postponed by the Tripoli Appeals Court to 22 January, as announced by his lawyer, Ahmed Nashad on Monday.

Nashad stated to the Al-Wasat Portal that “this is the tenth consecutive postponement due to the failure to transport Al-Senussi from his detention to the court.” The lawyer held the Public Prosecutor’s office responsible for this “negligence.”

The Attorney General, Al-Siddiq Al-Sour, addressed these delays in a press conference last week, affirming that his office would investigate the causes behind Senussi’s prolonged trial. Al-Sour committed to ensuring a “fair, transparent, and swift trial for Senussi, in line with justice standards.”

Al-Sour also mentioned that his office “lacks information about Senussi’s current health condition.” He acknowledged receiving grievances from Senussi’s family concerning the repeated delays, and the extended duration of his trial.

This case continues to attract attention, as Al-Senussi, a key figure from the former regime, awaits his trial under uncertain conditions. The Libyan judicial system faces scrutiny regarding its ability to uphold justice standards in high-profile cases like this.

Libya has been in chaos since a NATO-backed uprising toppled longtime leader Muammar Gaddafi in 2011. The county has for years been split between rival administrations.

Libya’s economy, heavily reliant on oil, has suffered due to the ongoing conflict. The instability has led to fluctuations in oil production and prices, impacting the global oil market and Libya’s economy.

The conflict has led to a significant humanitarian crisis in Libya, with thousands of people killed, and many more displaced. Migrants and refugees using Libya as a transit point to Europe have also faced dire conditions.

The planned elections for December 2021 were delayed due to disagreements over election laws and the eligibility of certain candidates. This delay has raised concerns about the feasibility of a peaceful political transition.

Despite the ceasefire, security remains a significant concern with sporadic fighting and the presence of mercenaries and foreign fighters. The unification of the military and the removal of foreign forces are crucial challenges.
