The Head of the UNSMIL and the UN delegate to Libya, Martin Kobler, said killing 10 people in cold blood and then tossing them into a landfill is absolutely a heinous crime.

Kobler said late on Saturday that the perpetrators must be held accountable and must be brought to justice, calling for an immediate investigation.

“I was dazzled when I heard that 10 bodies were found in a landfill with signs of torture and with their hands and feet tied.” Kobler indicated.

Kobler also condemned the killing of the Head of the Anti-Corruption Organisation in Benghazi Mohammed Abu Gayages, who was killed by an explosion of a booby-trapped car in Benghazi’s Al-Keesh square.

“Those who made up the explosion to kill Abu Gayages should be brought to justice in no time.” Kobler concluded.
