Libyan trial at ICC sparks anger against Dbeibeh
The article discusses the importance and trial of Khaled Al-Hayshri, the former director of a prison in Tripoli, who is standing before the International Criminal Court on charges related to war crimes and crimes against humanity committed at Misrata Prison between 2015 and 2020. His involvement includes allegations of torture, killing, and mistreatment of detainees, and he now faces formal accusations encompassing deliberate torture, rape, and psychological and physical abuse. Supporters characterize his detention as a crime, emphasizing that he was a defender of the city’s stability, viewing the case as politically motivated. Meanwhile, the Libyan government and its allies consider his trial unlawful because they did not ratify the Rome Statute. His trial is expected to take place on May 4, 2025, after the National Unity Government approved the court’s jurisdiction, amid warnings of potential delays and political tensions related to the case.
