 Tripoli, 24 July, 2022 (Lana) - The United Nations Support Mission in Libya has expressed its concern over the ongoing harassment, restrictions and acts of violence against lawyers.

It pointing out that six lawyers were either assaulted, arrest or arbitrary detained during the past six months. It also said lawyer Abdullah Ali Farhat was beaten on July 18 in Tripoli Court.
