GNC legislative and Constitutional Committee renew condemnation of Libyans imprisoned in UAE.

Tripoli, 25.02.2015(Lana) The GNC Legislative and Constitutional Committee renewed its condemnation of arrests of several Libyans by United Arab Emirates for about six months without any legal measures such as referring them, to the judiciary or enabling them to appoint lawyers and depriving them of their rights according to Universal Declaration for Human Rights. In a statement today the committee underlined that the Libyan detainees did not commit any crime but they were arbitrarily arrested for political reasons without legal support in contradiction of all international laws and conventions. The GNC committee urged the authorities concerned in the Emirates to release immediately the remaining detainees similar to those released earlier. It appealed to sisterly Gulf Cooperation Council to make their good offices for the release and return home of Libyan detainees in UAE. =Lana=
