A U.N.-appointed mission to Libya has said that there are “probable mass graves” yet to be investigated, possibly as many as 100, in a town where hundreds of bodies have already been found, and it urged Tripoli to keep searching.
The Chairman of the mission, Mohamed Auajjar said there were more than 200 missing people in Tarhouna, a situation he said “which has caused indescribable suffering for their families who have the right to know what happened to their loved ones.”
The evidence of kidnappings, murder and torture in Tarhouna, uncovered by the independent Fact-Finding Mission, represents one of the most egregious examples of rights abuses in the turbulent period since Muammar Gaddafi’s ousting in 2011.
