The Libyan police arrested an individual for selling counterfeit dollars in Tripoli. The report to Ghut al Shaal police station in Tripoli was filed by a citizen who purchased $2,700, only to discover that $1,300 of it was fake.

The Criminal Investigation Department pursued the case, identifying and apprehending the suspect. Upon interrogation, the suspect confessed to knowingly selling the counterfeit money, which he obtained from outside Libya.

Legal proceedings were initiated, and the suspect was transferred to Ghut al Shaal police station for further prosecution.

Early January, the Benghazi Security Directorate announced the seizure of firearms and hand grenades during security stops conducted by police.

According to a statement, security stops and searches conducted by the Sidi Khalifa Police Center led to the discovery of firearms, along with abandoned ammunition and shells in an open area.

The security forces handed over the confiscated weapons and ammunition to the relevant authorities.

Earlier, the Spokesman for the Libyan National Army (LNA), Brigadier General Ahmed Al-Mismari stressed the LNA’s commitment to “maintaining security, thwarting external threats, and preventing the flow of weapons, ensuring the safety of Libya.”

In a televised statement, Al-Mismari highlighted the success in forming anti-terrorism units in 2023, and the strategic training plan implemented for the armed forces.

He emphasised the impact of military developments in neighbouring countries on Libya’s security. Especially in the south, where the Armed Forces effectively countered Chadian militia movements.

Specialised units combating terrorism were established, demonstrating flexibility in responding to various challenges.
Al-Mismari underscored the LNA’s foundation in principles since 2014, with soldiers trained to fight under diverse circumstances. Despite financial constraints and governmental negligence, internal cohesion remains a priority.

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