Tripoli- the Tripoli Court of Appeal postponed the pronouncement of the verdict in the case of abuse of Abu Salim prison until mid-June next.

The Tripoli Appeals Court announced a date to pronounce the verdict against the accused in the Abu Salim massacre until next June, in the presence of the victims’ families.

It is noteworthy that the Ninth Circuit of the Tripoli Appeals Court had issued a ruling on December 15, 2019 to drop the charges against the defendants in the Abu Salim prison case, which claimed the lives of more than 1,200 prisoners during the Gaddafi era, due to the expiry of the litigation period.
